Rick Martin, Director of Communications & Community Relations for Douglas County, will be assuming the new role as the first-ever Fire & EMS Public Information Director in the history of Douglas County. Mr. Martin has been tasked with the responsibility of shaping and developing communication strategies related to public safety.
“I’m excited to continue leading and humbled by the confidence Chairman, Dr. Romona Jackson Jones, and the Board of Commissioners have in my ability and level of experience,” Martin said. “Citizens have told the Board of Commissioners that their most strategic priority was Public Safety, and I truly look forward to effectively communicating how the Fire & EMS Department, E-911, and EMA are operating through the existing channels of our government.”
