OIFC to discuss fire marshal role aboard ferry

Fire Districts from the entire county will be gathering to discuss the future of the Fire Marshal’s office.

On Sept. 30, the fire commissions from districts 2, 3, 4 and 5 will meet aboard the inter-island ferry. The boat departs San Juan at 2:15, Orcas at 3:05, Shaw at 3:20, and Lopez at 3:40. The meeting will run from 3:45 to 5:15.

The meeting will discuss the role of the Fire Marshal county-wide as well as the cost-effectiveness of that role as it functions on Orcas Island.

This is a special meeting of the OIFC commissioners and the public is invited to attend.
