South County Fire Chief Shaughn Maxwell was sworn in Tuesday to lead Snohomish County’s largest fire agency. Maxwell took the oath of office during a Change of Command Ceremony, where retiring Fire Chief Bob Eastman was also honored. Both chiefs have served south Snohomish County for 30 years. “In reflecting on why I am so proud to be a part of South County Fire, I determined that it’s our humans,” Maxwell said. Maxwell created South County Fire’s successful ACT program that teaches life-saving skills including CPR, AED, tourniquet and Narcan use in a one-hour class.
