Longtime LAFD leader to become its next chief
Los Angeles Times
|October 25, 2025
A longtime Los Angeles Fire Department leader who is the head of the agency's Valley operations will become the department's new chief, Mayor Karen Bass confirmed Friday.
JAIME MOORE, seen with Patty Shales, worked as a public information officer.
Jaime Moore, a deputy chief, will take the reins after a nationwide search during which the mayor interviewed fire chiefs of other major cities.
Bass also visited firehouses, hearing from firefighters on what they were looking for in a chief.
"Jaime Moore is a proven and admired firefighter and executive who will urgently advance an agenda of reform to better prepare LA for major emergencies and upcoming world events, and to improve responses to 911 calls citywide," Bass said in a statement to The Times.
The announcement comes just months before the first anniversary of the deadly Palisades fire, and as Republican Senators launch a probe into the city's handling of the disaster.
