“2020 was a year of challenge and change. This year our department and community truly exhibited what is means to be Paso Strong,” Fire Chief Jonathan Stornetta states. “The staff of Paso Robles Fire and Emergency Services remains creative and resilient during these challenging times. Standing by their mission of “Our Mission is You”, in addition to answering over 3,600 calls for service in 2020 staff was proactive in erecting a temporary homeless shelter, conducting wildland fire fuels mitigation throughout the community, assisting in wildland fires throughout the state, and securing over $1.5 million in federal grants to better serve the residents and visitors of our community. These are just a few examples of why I am so proud to lead such a great organization, and work for such a remarkable community.”
