Director Fletcher Resigns; Fire Board Seeks Applicants

Windsor CA - Todd Fletcher has resigned his position as director of the Windsor Fire Protection District. Consequently, the fire district's Board of Directors is seeking applications from citizens who may be interested in filling the vacancy.

Fire service experience is not necessary. Windsor Fire Chief Ron Collier points out, "Our department is a business operating with an $1.5 million annual budget. Business acumen is by far the most important quality."

"This is an exciting and important time in our District," said Battalion Chief Matt Gustafson. "The growth and changing demographic of our community present us with a variety of challenges. What we accomplish over the next couple of years will affect emergency services response for years to come. This is a great opportunity for a motivated, creative, experienced person to make a difference."

The WFPD Board meets at WFPD Station 1, 8200 Old Redwood Highway, on the third Thursday of every month at 7:00 pm. Board meetings last an average of an hour. Directors receive a $100 stipend for each regularly scheduled monthly meeting ($1,200 per year) attended.

Interested parties should submit a résumé along with a letter of interest to Ron Collier, Fire Chief, Windsor Fire Protection District, PO Box 530, Windsor, CA 95492-0530. Letters & resumes will be accepted through 5:00 pm, Thursday, April 11, 2002. Those with questions may call (707) 838-1170.

Interviews will be conducted at the District's April 17 Board meeting.

WFPD is a combination paid/volunteer department that responded to 1700 calls for service in 2002.
