Fire Chief provides 2025 annual report
McPHERSON — City of McPherson Fire Department Chief Chad Mayberry on Tuesday, Jan. 27, 2026, provided the department’s annual report for 2025.
Speaking to the McPherson City Commission, Mayberry explained call numbers by type and locations throughout McPherson County and all of the department’s Mutual Aid services.
Numbers slightly rose in 2025, partly due to mid-year shifts in response. Beginning July 1 in 2025, the department began responding to all medical calls rather than simply providing assistance. That change saw an increase of nearly 120 calls for service for the year.
Of the 1,767 calls, 1,563 were within the City of McPherson limits.
Mayberry also highlighted some of the department’s accomplishments, namely increasing its staffing to seven per shift that accompanied the official opening of Station 2 on North Main Street.
