North Metro Fire is guided by an elected board of directors consisting of five members. Each board member typically serves a four-year term and is limited to three consecutive board terms. Beginning in 2023, board elections will be held every two years in May in odd-numbered years for four-year terms. The next board election will be held May 4, 2027. 

Directors are required to attend monthly board meetings at North Metro Fire Headquarters (101 Spader Way, Broomfield) and occasional study sessions as needed.
