Congratulations Emily well deserved!

North Carolina Fire & Rescue Administrative Professionals

🌟 Member Spotlight – August🌟
Congratulations on being our August Featured Member!
This month, we are proud to recognize Emily Lineberger as our August Member Spotlight.
Emily has her hands full working in Human Resources for the Charlotte Fire Department, the largest fire department in North Carolina. The department provides fire and emergency services across a 320-square-mile service area, supporting one of the fastest-growing communities in the state.
With an impressive 27 years of service, Emily has earned a reputation as the person everyone turns to when they need help solving a problem. Whether assisting employees, navigating complex personnel matters, or simply providing guidance and support, Emily is known for her knowledge, professionalism, and willingness to help others.
When asked what is most important about her job, Emily's answer is simple: "Being able to help people and make their day easier." Those who work alongside her can attest that she lives those words every day. Her coworkers describe her as a pleasure to work with and someone who consistently goes above and beyond to support others.
When she's not serving the Charlotte community, Emily enjoys some uniquely local traditions. Her ideal evening might include a visit to Lineberger's Restaurant (despite the shared name, there is no relation!) during the Christmas season. If all goes well, she'll find her favorite potato salad on the salad bar and may even convince the staff to play Bon Jovi's Please Come Home for Christmas over the restaurant sound system.
A sports enthusiast and proud North Carolinian, many people may be surprised to learn that Emily was once a member of the Marching Tar Heels, adding another interesting chapter to her already impressive story.
Emily's dedication to helping others, her positive attitude, and her commitment to the fire service make her a valued member of the fire service family. We are honored to recognize her as our August Member Spotlight and thank her for the difference she makes every day.
Congratulations, Emily

A downed power line sparked a brush fire that spread into a wooded area this afternoon on Exchange Street. L13, E13, Brush 21, and West Meck Brush responded quickly to contain the flames.

Remember: if you see a downed power line, stay back and call 911 immediately. Your safety comes first.
