COLUMBUS, Ind. – The Columbus Fire Department (CFD) announced on Friday that Battalion Chief Mark Ziegler has been promoted to Deputy Chief of Fire Department Operations. Ziegler is a 22-year veteran of the department and has worked his way through the ranks of the department throughout his career.
CFD says he was promoted to the Deputy Chief position previously held by Andy Lay, who was recently appointed as Chief of Fire by Mayor Jim Lienhoop.
“Deputy Chief Ziegler is an excellent addition to our department’s administration. Mark’s experience as a company officer and incident commander has given him a deep understanding of department operations and leadership,” said Columbus Fire Chief Andy Lay.
