WELLSVILLE The Wellsville Village Board started a new tradition Monday night, honoring its outgoing fire chief with a plaque in appreciation of his service.
Michael “Barney” Dillie recently completed his two-year term as chief of the Wellsville Fire Department. Dillie previously served a pair of two-year terms as second- and first-assistant chief, with the plaque marking all six years of service to the village from 2015-2021.
Mayor Randy Shayler said such formal recognition of the outgoing chief was long overdue. Shayler credited Trustee Mike Roeske for suggesting an official acknowledgment of service to the village.

Abandoned trailer burns to the ground on Madison Hill Road in Wellsville
Wellsville Fire Chief Michael “Barney” Dillie stopped just short of calling the fire suspicious, saying the cause is undetermined
The Wellsville Daily Reporter
WELLSVILLE An abandoned trailer on Madison Hill Road in the Town of Wellsville burned to the ground Thursday night.
The trailer sat about 20 yards off the road at the top of the hill in a heavily forested area, with no homes or other structures in the immediate vicinity. The environment did not appear conducive to a fire, with the ground still covered in snow and some light rain in the area earlier in the day.
