Good morning, Medford.

On Feb. 4, the City of Medford's Fire Recruit Academy held a First Alarm Run in downtown to connect recruits with local emergency history — training new firefighters and honoring those who lost their lives in the line of duty.

Medford Firefighters will travel to Seattle to raise funds for Blood Cancer United for Oregon and Southwest Washington and will host fundraisers at Food-4-Less on Feb.

7 and Feb. 14 from 11 a.m. to 3 p.m.

Medford Fire Recruit Academy completed its First Alarm Run Wednesday morning as recruits visited downtown sites linked to key emergencies and department history (including moments of sacrifice).

Fire Chief Eric Thompson said the run built teamwork and helped trainees connect with the community.

City officials clarified plans for two new multi-residential projects on West Evans Creek Road and Foothill Boulevard—Windmill Subdivision and Dusty Ridge, a planned unit development—during recent meetings.
