Prudential Committee
The Prudential Committee is the three-member elected board that provides the executive governance of the West Barnstable Fire District. It is akin to a Board of Selectmen and Finance Committee in Massachusetts town government.
The Prudential Committee appoints the District Fire Chief/Manager, the District Treasurer and the District Clerk.
Prudential Committee meetings typically include a review of the fire district budget, monthly ambulance billing, a fire chief report of fire department activities, financial and operational planning and a review of on-going projects.
The Prudential Committee meets once each month. Occasionally there are additional special meetings. The regular monthly meeting is on the third Wednesday of the month at 4:00 PM at the West Barnstable Fire Station, 2160 Meetinghouse Way, West Barnstable, MA. The public is invited to attend. The WBFD Election Meeting and Annual Meeting is April 27, 2022 at 5:00 PM at the WB Community Building.
