FIRE COMMISSIONERS

Fire District 40 Commissioners are elected officials who represent the concerns and interest of you, the citizens of the community. We oversee finances, equipment, capital improvements, and general fire department operations. We meet at 4:30 PM on the second and last Thursday of each month at our Headquarters Station located at 18002 180th Ave SE. We are always interested in what you have to say, so please feel free to attend the meetings to learn more about what is going on in your fire department. There is an opportunity at the end of the meeting to ask questions or share your ideas and concerns. If you are unable to attend, feel free to e-mail or write to us.
