Arcata Fire District Approves Agenda, Announces Community Outreach

The Arcata Fire Protection District Board of Directors held their regularly scheduled meeting on May 13, 2025, covering a range of topics from agenda approval to upcoming community engagements. While a significant portion of the meeting was held in closed session, the publicly accessible portion provided updates on district activities and future plans.

The meeting commenced with the approval of the agenda. A motion was made and seconded, followed by a unanimous roll call vote, according to the video recording of the meeting. No public comments were recorded during the open session.

In terms of community engagement, the Arcata Fire District announced its participation in two significant events. The district's firefighters and staff recently participated in a career fair at Eureka High School, aiming to engage with the next generation and promote opportunities within the fire service. More immediately, the district will be present at Eureka City Express Days on June 5th, offering another chance for residents to interact with the team and learn more about the district's activities.

Following the open session, the board moved into a closed session on May 13th. The specifics of the closed session were not publicly available due to the limitations of the provided video recording. The video recording, however, shows a multi-camera setup recording the open meeting portion.

The Arcata Fire Protection District holds their Board of Directors meetings on the second Tuesday of each month at 5:30 pm. Agendas are available online at www.arcatafire.org/board-meetings. Residents are encouraged to review the agendas and attend meetings to stay informed and participate in local governance.
