Due to a production error, the final paragraph of the story headlined "Board picks new Monroe fire chief" on Page A1 of the Jan. 11 edition of the Times was incomplete.

Here is the full paragraph, which refers to Dan Smits of Crete Fire Department in Illinois:

He said he has been looking to move to the Monroe area for "quite some time" because it is close to family and he enjoys the city.

The Times regrets the error.
