COLDENHAM FIRE DISTRICT |
|
The Coldenham Fire District consists of five publicly-elected officials,
the Board of Fire Commissioners, each of whom serves a five year term.
Much like the volunteer firefighters we work with, we are not paid to serve as
Commissioners. It is our responsibility to provide the necessary apparatus,
buildings and equipment needed to assist the Coldenham Fire Department in
the fire and rescue activities that are essential for the protection of life and
property within the Coldenham Fire District. It is also our responsibility
to operate the Coldenham Fire District in accordance with the laws of the
State of New York. |

BOARD OF FIRE COMMISSIONERS |
| Chairman |
Tim
Besser |
The board meets
on a monthly basis, to oversee the operation of the Fire District and to
make policies and procedures under which the Fire District and the Fire Company operate. We remain keenly aware of the fiduciary responsibility
we hold in representing the taxpayers within our Fire District. As
Commissioners, we are mandated to follow a strict formula in preparing
the budget in accordance with the laws of the State of New York,
including specified spending limits. Our process is a public one, and we
welcome the input of the residents and taxpayers we represent in the Coldenham Fire District. |
