Board President - Position Number 1
Jonathan has served on our Lake Grove Fire District Board since July 2009. Jon is a long-time resident of the area and is an alumna of River Grove Elementary School, Lakeridge Middle School (formerly Waluga Junior High School), and Lakeridge High School. After a short time living away at college and in SE Portland, Jon returned to the Rosewood Lake Grove area of Lake Oswego in 2006 where he is continuing to raise his 2 boys who have now graduated from high school. He is a dedicated father and truly enjoys his home time with his family and friends.
He was elected to the Fire Board as a write-in candidate in May of 2009 and has been re-elected in the general elections since in May of 2013. Jon's goals mirror those of the other board members and include: more public participation at Board meetings, safer buildings and construction, more governmental transparency including being fiscally responsible, better community emergency preparedness for natural disasters, supporting our contracted Fire Service Provider (Lake Oswego Fire Department) in their work to reduce cancer exposures to their members, and effective fire suppression and emergency response.
Jon's current term expires June 30, 2029.
