Reno Fire Chief to Lead Sparks Too | Reno News

Reno’s Fire Chief Dave Cochran could soon lead both Reno and Sparks fire departments under a new interlocal agreement—no merger, just shared leadership. With Sparks temporarily without a chief after Walt White’s retirement, acting Chief Derek Keller will stay in place while Cochran steps in as senior leader for Sparks, reimbursed by Reno for 25% of his salary. Both city councils must approve the plan, set for votes July 27 and 29, with a renewable term pending final details.
