As Chief, Nelson is not only responsible for overseeing the organization’s operations, but he is also the chief fire code inspector for the entire NAFRS area. Over the last year, in his role as interim chief, Nelson has re-organized the NAFRS leadership structure so that the two Assistant Chiefs, Jesse Thomas and Sean Simonson, as well as the captains below them have all been delegated important responsibilities. And we try to do these things that we all know need to be done, but there aren’t enough hours in the day.” I mean what both John Mahacek and Gerry Franek as chief before me, and me in this interim period is you have a full-time job. You know it’s really exciting to think about being able to wake up in the morning and just think about one full-time job. I’ve been at Minnesota Public Radio for 18 years, and before that I was at WCAL at Saint Olaf.
“It’s an odd transition for any of us that have worked somewhere for a long time. Nelson, who has been a well-respected radio engineer for 36 years, said the transition to full-time fire chief will be a strange experience, but something he is looking forward to.

Tom Nelson who served for two decades as Assistant Chief under former chief Gerry Franek and has spent the last year as the interim chief becomes the first full-time fire chief that either the Northfield Fire Department or the Northfield Area Fire and Rescue Service has ever had. After eight years of existence, recommendations by three different independent consultants, and two solid years of debate, the Northfield Area Fire and Rescue Service has a full-time chief.
