Grand County Wildfire Council
Board of Directors
The Board of Directors consists of five to nine members. Members of the Board represent wildfire-centric organizations, coalitions or collaborative groups with a vested interest in local wildfire issues. The Board of Directors will have primary oversight for setting the strategic course of Grand County Wildfire Council and for the review and approval of major programs and plans. Elections to the Board of Directors take place during the first official meeting of each calendar year. Board members serve for a term of two years and are not term-limited. Terms are staggered so that the entire Board does not turn over in any given year. The Board of Directors meets as needed to maintain Council business and programs.
