Being a part of the Board is a significant way to contribute to the safety and well-being of our community. We are looking for individuals who are eager to bring fresh perspectives and strong representation to the Board. The process to apply is straightforward and we hope to see a diverse range of applicants.

The South Placer Fire District Board is comprised of seven members: three from Division 1 (former Loomis Fire District boundaries) and four from Division 2 (former South Placer Fire District boundaries). The Board operates under the California Health and Safety Code Section 13800, also known as the Fire Protection District Law of 1987 or the Bergeson Fire District Law.

 

The Board of Directors meets regularly at Station 17, located at 6900 Eureka Road, Granite Bay, at 6:00 PM on the second Wednesday of each month. We welcome and encourage public attendance, both in-person and virtually.

 

This is your chance to make a meaningful impact in our community. We urge you to consider applying for this important role. Your voice and participation can help shape the future of our district.

 

Thank you for your time and consideration. We look forward to receiving your application!

 

Best regards,
