The Palm Coast Fire Department has promoted Volunteer Capt. Tim Wilsey to battalion chief.
Wilsey began his service with the Palm Coast Fire Department as a volunteer firefighter in 2005. He was promoted to lieutenant in 2007 and captain in 2012.
“Chief Wilsey has served our department for greater than 17 years, in which he’s been a perpetual leader,” Palm Coast Fire Chief Jerry Forte said. “We now look to Chief Wilsey’s talents and skills administratively as we reorganize and grow our volunteer programs.”
The Palm Coast Fire Department offers several volunteer programs to include volunteer firefighter, intern, and fire police, all of which have seen increased growth over the years. In his role as battalion chief, Wilsey will have more oversight on the administrative duties and long range planning so the volunteer programs are flexible and adaptable for future operations.
Wilsey earned his Firefighter and EMT certifications from Daytona State College. He also earned his bachelor of science in public administration from Flagler College in 2018. Professionally, Wilsey is the human resources manager for the city of Palm Coast.
Wilsey and his wife, Kim, have two daughters, one granddaughte and are expecting a grandson this April.
