FIRE MARSHAL OF THE YEAR
At FPI, Assistant Fire Chief and Fire Marshal Mike Messer was awarded the 2025 Fire Marshal of the Year! The award was presented to Chief Messer by the Washington State Association of Fire Marshals at the Fire Prevention Institute. Fire Marshals play a vital role in our communities, ensuring that building plans for homes and commercial structures meet current fire codes, enforcing regulations that protect life and property, conducting fire investigations, and much more. Congratulations, Chief Messer, on this well- deserved recognition!
