TYLER — Tyler officially welcomed its new fire chief Monday. Dozens of well-wishers filled a room at the Rose Garden Center for Tim Johnson’s promotion ceremony. Johnson says Tyler’s fire department has a historic tradition of high-quality service to residents — and he hopes to make it the best it can be. The former district chief called his decision to join the fire department thirty years ago “life-changing.” Mayor Barbara Bass said Johnson’s appointment was the right move for the city.
