The new structure will consist of a Fire Chief, two Station Chiefs, a Fire Prevention Officer who will also act as Deputy Fire Chief and a number of Captains at each station. The only two full-time positions will remain with Fire Chief and the Fire Prevention Officer/Deputy Fire Chief.

Two individuals were selected from names submitted in competition (as required). Station Chief for Port Elgin's Station 60 is Jim Threndyle and for Southampton's Station 50, the Station Chief will be Brian Johnston. Both are long-time firefighters within the department.
