Grand Lake Fire Board of Directors

Grand Lake Fire Protection District is governed by a five-person, non-partisan board that is elected by registered voters of the District. Board members are elected for four-year terms in alternating election years and are term-limited for no more than two consecutive terms. As a result, there are at least two members elected every two-years. If a Board member vacates their seat, per Colorado Revised Statutes, the remaining Board of Directors appoint the new Board member from interested electors. The appointed Board member serves until the next election.

The Fire Board is charged with diverse responsibilities. Specifically, the Board establishes policy,  approves annual budgets, and hires the Fire Chief.
