After 42 years in the fire service, Fire Chief Michael J. Damon retired from the RBFD where he served as the fire chief for the last four years.  Chief Damon spent most of his career moving through the ranks of the Oroville Fire Department rising to the position of Division Chief.

Chief Damon was instrumental in bringing many positive changes to the RBFD upon his arrival.  He will be truly missed by all RBFD personnel. 

Division Chief Gerry Gray will serve as interim fire chief until a permanent fire chief is selected.
