City Manager Bruce Moore has chosen Delphone Hubbard, a 22-year veteran of the Memphis Fire Department, to be Little Rock fire chief, succeeding Gregory Summers, who retired in August.
Moore, who interviewed two finalists, said Hubbard was dedicated to fire safety and community involvement. The other finalist was Brian Dunn, fire chief in San Angelo, Texas.
