City Fire Chief Rob Simonds is taking on some new duties.

As the Canadian Association of Fire Chiefs continues it's annual meeting in Saint John, Simonds will be sworn in as it's new president. Simonds tells CHSJ News, along with being a great honour, it also brings recognition to the city and all of it's hardworking, dedicated firefighters.

Simonds has served as the first-vice president of the association for the past two years and says part of his mandate will be to find tax relief for volunteer fire-fighters.
