The Norway town chairwoman is taking a wait-and-see stand regarding allegations of misconduct in Dane County against Don Catenacci, the new fire chief for the Wind Lake Volunteer Fire Company.
Catenacci, in addition to his part-time position as fire chief in Wind Lake, is also a part-time assistant chief for the Verona Fire Department in Dane County. Jean Jacobson, town chair for Norway, which contracts its fire and EMS services from the Wind Lake Fire Company, said she wants to “wait and see” what happens with the investigation in Verona before considering recommending any action against Catenacci in Wind Lake.
Jacobson added that she has been “extremely impressed with the work he’s done so far” since Catenacci became chief in September, succeeding Rob Robins, who retired.
