North County Fire Protection District board meetings during calendar year 2023 will begin at 5 p.m.

The NCFPD board voted 4-1 Dec. 13, with Ken Munson opposed, to move the starting time from 4 p.m. to 5 p.m. The first meeting with that new starting time will take place Jan. 24.

“That was to accommodate the personal schedule of our board members,” said NCFPD Fire Chief Keith McReynolds. “It may allow members of the community to attend our meetings who may get off work later in the day.”

The meetings remain primarily on the fourth Tuesday of the month. A special district leadership academy conference from Feb. 26 to March 1 caused the February meeting to be scheduled for Feb. 21 rather than Feb. 28. The November and December meetings are combined and avoid the week of Thanksgiving; the 2023 meeting will be on Dec. 12.

The board meetings will remain at the Fallbrook Public Utility District board room. “The place doesn’t change. Only the time,” McReynolds said.
