🚒 Congratulations, Chief Otto Huber! 🚒

The City of Loveland is proud to announce that our new fire station, currently under construction at 220 E. Loveland Avenue, will be named in honor of longtime Loveland-Symmes Fire Department Chief Otto Huber.

Chief Huber has dedicated 50 years of service to the Loveland community, leading with distinction and earning recognition at the local, state, and national levels for his commitment to public safety and firefighter training. From receiving the Ohio Fire Service Distinguished Service Award in 2023 to being honored with the 2025 Alan Brunacini Fire Service Executive Safety Award, Chief Huber’s legacy is one of visionary leadership, innovation, and devotion to community safety.

“Chief Huber’s contributions to the safety of our city over his 50 years of service made naming the new station in his honor an easy decision,” said Mayor Kathy Bailey.

Once complete, the new facility will replace Historic Downtown’s Station 63 and proudly bear Chief Huber’s name—a lasting tribute to his leadership and service. ❤️🔥
