Director Steve Anderson could not make it to the Dec. 2 Moraga-Orinda Fire District board meeting, so he joined the proceedings via remote hookup.

"You know what happens when you don't show up to a meeting," said Anderson. The board unanimously elected Anderson president effective Jan. 1.

"I am committed to continue to provide excel- lent service for our district residents and to maintain fiscal responsibility," he said later. Anderson will elaborate on the state of the district in the Dec. 30 issue of the Lamorinda Weekly.

Fire Chief Jeff Carman appointed Lewis Broschard as Deputy Chief of the Contra Costa County Fire Protection District effective Dec. 1.

"We've been getting our reactive work done but not the proactive work," said Carman. Broschard will perform many of the ConFire executive level planning tasks, such as working with the nine cities that the district serves. "It's an honor to be appointed as the district's first Deputy Fire Chief," he said.

Broschard has been a member of the ConFire senior staff since 2012. "It is remarkable to see the progress we've made in such a short period of time to start the rebuilding process of the district," he said. "The projects we have recently initiated to invest in our capital needs - including purchasing new engines, ladder trucks and rescue apparatus, as well as providing facility improvements at fire station 17 and the rebuilding of fire station 16 - will directly benefit the city of Lafayette and all the communities we serve."

Carman expects to present his board a proposal for the station 16 rebuild in January. He also said that he plans to fill the assistant fire chief position that Broschard vacated, as well as hire an assistant chief to supervise the district emergency medical service operations, by the spring of next year.
