The search is on for San Diego's next fire chief, and community members gathered to discuss what they want most.

It's been five months since the San Diego Fire-Rescue Department took over ambulance service after concerns over slow response times. But whether that agreement will continue is one of the critical decisions that will be made by San Diego’s next fire chief.

“I serve the patients. I see the socioeconomic and social determinants of health, so it's super important to me that all of our communities that are really suffering have emergency medical services that are going to be responsive to what our needs are," Pretanvil said.Current Chief Colin Stowell is retiring after 34 years of public service, which includes nearly six years as San Diego’s fire chief. The city of San Diego has launched a nationwide search for his replacement.

“Having this information is just a supplement to prioritizing what the community wants,” Khouri said.
