Tamarac Fire Rescue honored James Murad as Firefighter of the Year during the April 7 commission meeting.
Murad, who has served as a Tamarac firefighter for 8 years, was recognized for his exceptional performance, particularly as lead instructor for the cadet program.
He has passed the examination and met all the requirements to become a lieutenant. Since then, he has served as the fire department’s acting lieutenant, and now Murad expects to be promoted to full lieutenant when the position opens.
“I am glad to be a firefighter because I can help others. I encounter people who are having their worst day, and I look for a way to help them get through it. If possible, I help them improve their situation,” said Murad.
Fire Chief Jonathan Frasher requested the proclamation for Murad.
