The Board of Directors is the unit of authority within the District. Apart from his/her normal function as a part of this unit, Directors have no individual authority. As individuals, Directors may not commit the District to any policy, act, expenditure, or give individual direction to the Fire Chief or District employees. Directors do not represent any fractional segment of the community, but are rather, a part of the body, which represents and acts for the community as a whole.

The policy of the Fire District Board recognizes that one of its major functions is to serve as the policy-making body of the Fire District, and to govern the activities and shape the future of the Fire District. At the same time, the Board preserves for the Fire Chief and the professional staff the responsibility of the day-to-day administration and operations of the District in a manner consistent with the policies and rules of the Board of Directors.
