Summary
Blountsville’s public safety teams just got a major upgrade with the swearing-in of two new chiefs—both local heroes with decades of experience. Jaye Loggins, a 29-year veteran of the Mountain Brook Police Department and certified law enforcement executive, takes the helm as police chief. Meanwhile, Fire Chief Jay Wheeler, a certified firefighter and paramedic with elite training in critical care and smoke diving, continues his frontline work in Fultondale while leading the fire department. Both leaders live in Blount County with their families, making them deeply invested in the community they’re sworn to protect. This fresh leadership duo is poised to bring stability, expertise, and a strong local connection to Blountsville’s safety operations.
