upon his Retirement
SUBMITTED BY City Manager
ITEM EXPLANATION (4/5TH'S VOTE REQUIRED YES NO )
Clyde W. Longerbone joined the Chula Vista Fire Department on October 20, 1952, as a pro-
bationary hoseman. He was promoted through the ranks and on July 1, 1978, was appointed
Fire Chief. Clyde took over the Chief's duties at a time when his special. talents and
abilities were needed.
Under his leadership in the past year and a half as Chief, the department has weathered
the onslaught of Proposition 13 and still maintained its ability to respond effectively
and efficiently in the case of emergencies. He is greatly respected and appreciated by
the men and women of his department and his efforts in unifying the department into a
highly respected Fire Department, not only in this City but in surrounding communities,
are well known. His knowledge and experience in Fire Science are extensive and he
applied them in an exemplary way in carrying out his duties as Fire Chief.
His presence will be missed but his efforts and accomplishments will long be remembered.
