Board of Commissioners
The Endwell Fire District Board of Fire Commissioners consists of five residents within the fire district who are elected by the qualified voters of the fire District at the annual election held the second week in December. Each Commissioner is elected for a five-year term commencing on the 1st of January following the election. One commissioner is elected each year so there will always be an experienced commissioner on the board. Fire District Commissioners receive no compensation for their time.
The Commissioners meet monthly to oversee the activities of the fire district. These meetings occur on the fourth Thursday of every month and are open to the public. The meetings are held at the Endwell Fire Station #1, located at 3805 Country Club Road. The meeting time is 7:00 pm.
