Francis J. Navin Occupation: Incumbent Education & Qualifications: During my 12 years serving on the Board of Directors of the Half Moon Bay Fire Protection District, I have consistently supported the modernization of the fire Department and encouraged a progressive fire service delivery system by recruiting and selecting qualified staff. Having held the position as President of the Board for the last two terms, I have provided leadership, which enabled the District's paid Firefighters to attain Emergency Medical Technician qualification that has enabled them to save lives. In addition, I am exploring and supporting a Paramedic program and the first ever water rescue team for the Coast. Serving as Volunteer Liaison, I've supported the elevation of our Volunteer Firefighters to California State Certification. Through frugal management, I participated and supported the design and soon to be constructed new Fire Administrative and Fire Station facility, within the Fire District's budget. No new taxes have been imposed during my 12 years of service on the Board. As a 20 year Firefighter (retired) and my current experience on the Board, I feel I am qualified to continue to provide leadership to the Staff, fellow Board members, and the community in providing the best life saving protection for our community. /s/ Francis J.
