SOUTH BELOIT—The City of Beloit Fire Department will provide a person to act as fire chief for the South Beloit Fire Department, according to an intergovernmental agreement approved by the South Beloit City Council Tuesday.

The Beloit City Council is scheduled to review the intergovernmental Agreement tonight (June 1) at a special meeting.

The South Beloit Fire Department has been operating without a permanent chief since former Chief Dan Zerfass resigned in October. After Zerfass resigned, Capt.

Dave Palmer has taken on many of the chief duties in the interim.
