Fire Chief Phil retiring this month
Phil Johnson didn’t set out to be the Farmington fire chief for a span of nearly two-and-a-half decades. In fact, he only planned to help a coworker deliver some fire-retardant foam to a airplane crash site back in the spring of 1979 ... but that day the firefighter flame was kindled somewhere inside the maintenance worker.
Now Johnson will retire at the end of May after serving the Farmington Fire Department for 29 years. He became fire chief in 1984, meaning this year will mark 24 years of service in that role. He admits there’s been many changes to the department since he first signed on.
