As the old saying goes, “Time flies when you’re having fun.” And for Jon Trautwein, the past year has been a unique one, leading through a pandemic as the chief of the Sedona Fire District.
Trautwein took part in his first yearly evaluation with the SFD Governing Board during a virtual meeting on Tuesday, Sept. 15.
“Chief, I want to thank you for a job well done this first year,” Board President David Soto said. “A lot of the goals you set for yourself you’ve met. Some are just beyond reach that we’re working on as we speak this very moment.”
Soto’s words were echoed by other members of the board.
“We evaluate you in four areas, all of which are very important — operation, fiscal management, connection with the community and the board, and strategic planning,” Board Secretary Corrie Cooperman said. “I just want to say you’ve done an exemplary job in all four of those areas.”
