Since 1907, the City of Blanchard has employed hundreds of individuals who have been called to serve their community.
Many of these individuals work behind the scenes, often unseen and unsung. They help provide essential services, maintain our parks and public spaces, protect our community, and keep Blanchard running safely and smoothly.
Through our Employee Spotlight series, we want to introduce these dedicated individuals to the community.
Meet Charlie Largent! Charlie has been with the City of Blanchard for 15 years and currently serves as our Fire Chief and Emergency Manager.
Charlie enjoys serving the citizens of Blanchard and helping keep our community safe and prepared. Throughout his years with the City, he has shared his time and experience to support our community and respond when Blanchard needs him most.
Outside of work, Charlie is married and the proud parent of one child. He enjoys spending time with his family when he’s away from his responsibilities with the City.
We’re grateful to have Charlie serving the City of Blanchard and deeply appreciate the 15 years of dedication he has given to our community.
Thank you, Charlie, for your service and dedication to Blanchard!
Stay tuned for our next Employee Spotlight as we continue introducing you to the unsung heroes who serve our community.
