WARSAW — Garrett Holderman, who was hired as the fire chief for Warsaw-Wayne Fire territory last year has announced plans to resign.
In a letter to the Warsaw-Wayne Township Fire Territory Board, Holderman announced his intention to resign effective Feb. 7.
He cited personal family reasons for his decision and plans to return to Arizona.
Chief Holderman succeeded previous Chief Michael Wilson, who retired from service in 2022. He has been with Warsaw-Wayne Fire Territory for one year.
Holderman served the Rural Metro Fire Service for seventeen years before coming to Warsaw.
“Chief Holderman came to our community anxious to serve as Fire Chief and hit the ground running. He developed a leadership training program as an early priority that will reap benefits for the department for many years to come. I wish Garrett all the best as he continues his fire service career,” said Mayor Joe Thallemer.
