ladder captain the following
year.
In September of 1989,
Jackson left his family's body
shop and was hired as a
fi refi ghter and EMT, which
meant a $1,000 a month cut
in pay. He was one of only
fi ve full-time employees as
the district relied on a group
of 40-45 volunteers.
His body shop experience
quickly paid off as he helped
restore Keizer's original fi re
engine.
Jackson was promoted
to Division Chief in 1991,
tasked with running the
EMS operations. He helped
create Keizer Fire's Civil
Service Commission so
that the agency could hire
fi refi ghter/paramedics
to
start the ambulance service.
KFD had previously relied
on Salem or Marion County
for ambulances.
When KFD built its new
station in 1997, Jackson served
as the project manager, sitting
in on meetings between the
architect and contractor.
“I could approve anything
up to $25,000 without asking
anybody,” Jackson said. “I
was given that authority.
That (not hiring an outside
person) probably saved the
district $250,000 there. We
came in under budget. We
had money left over.”
Jackson
was
then
promoted to Deputy Chief in
2003, where his list of duties
got even more expansive.
He never applied for the
Chief position.
“That
would
mean
more talking in front of a
microphone and that's not
my cup of tea,” Jackson said.
“I just want to make it all
work.”
Making it all work
included training fi refi ghters,
records management, staff
scheduling, attending city
planning meetings, hiring,
ordering
supplies,
and
representing KFD on the
911 dispatch committee and
traffi c safety commission.
He was the secretary for the
EMS section of the Oregon
Fire Chiefs Association for 13
years.
Jackson, who turned 56
in November, is only able
to retire because the KFD
Board of Directors agreed
to allow him to stay on part
time, where he'll work with
billing and collection vendors
on the now $2 million a year
ambulance service he helped
bring to the district.
“The only reason that I was
able to go through with it or
follow through and actually
pull the trigger on that was
the board's willingness to
allow me to work back,”
Jackson said. “It will be nice
to stay involved.”
Chief Jeff Cowan added:
“When you've got someone
with that amount of time,
hours and experience, you
can't just go get somebody
with that. And for them to be
willing to work back because
of their invested interest in
the organization and that
motivation, it works for

everybody. It's a win-win.”
With his new-found free
time, Jackson plans to fi nish
the remodel of a Keizer
home, located on fi ve acres
he and his wife Vickie bought
three years ago. He'll also
spend more time out at their
place on the coast and fi shing.
