Summary:
The State statute (Fire Control, Prevention, and Emergency Medical Services District Act) which enables creation of a FCPEMSD also specifies qualifications for membership on the board of directors and the manner in which appointments to the board of directors are to be made.
Mr. John Green has resigned from the FCPEMSD Board of Directors. Mr. Green was an original member of the Board, serving on the Temporary Board of Directors along with Board member Sam Pipkin in 2011.
