New Dadeville fire chief Scott Atkins addresses the council after his appointment.

The Dadeville City Council appointed Scott Atkins as fire chief by unanimous vote Wednesday, following last months' decision not to reappoint then-chief Keith Wilkerson.

"All I'll say is, everybody gets treated the same," Atkins said of his new regime.
