Monday, September 19, 5:30 – 7:30 p.m., Eastsound Fire Station
— from Jim Schuh —
The process of vetting candidates for the open commissioner’s position has taken longer than expected. Therefore the next Board of Fire Commissioners Meeting will be the regular meeting on Monday, September 19, 5:30 – 7:30 p.m., at the Eastsound Fire Station.
Carry over issues from the August 22 meeting will be addressed as well as choosing a candidate for the open position. Interested individuals can still apply by contacting Commissioner Barbara Bedell at bedellorcas@gmail.com.
Please note: According to the WA State Fire Commissioners Handbook, a candidate for a vacant board position is appointed by the remaining commissioners and not elected.
