Letter: TDFPD board members say thanks

To the community,

We would like to thank the entire community for the trust you’ve placed in us to help guide the Tahoe Douglas Fire Protection District. Our new chief, Scott Baker, and his entire team are phenomenal community assets and it’s our honor to support them.

Our district is fiscally sound, our staff is well trained and equipped, and the members of this organization serve our residents and guests competently and with pride daily. There are some difficult challenges in front of us, however, including addressing areas of our community which have no firefighting water supply and assessing and managing the impacts of the redevelopment area on future funding.

We always welcome your suggestions, questions, and attendance at our board meetings. Again, thank you for your support — especially if we missed you while we were giving out Ann’s fresh-baked cookies as a thank you on Friday. We are committed to representing you well.

Ann Grant, Larry Schussel and Greg Felton, TDFPD board
