Meet Our Commissioners

Whatcom County Fire District #1 is governed by 3 elected Commissioners who serve a 6 year term. Currently our three commissioners are Randy VanderHeiden, Shannon Whitford-Ahlers, and Kurt Bruland. The Commissioners meet regularly on the second Thursday of every month at 9:00am. The operations of the District are overseen by Fire Chief Rachel Carlson. The financial information is handled by our Administrative Manager Jodi DeBeeld. The public is welcome to attend all meetings; either in person or via zoom. The zoom link will be posted below prior to each Commissioner meeting.
