about our fire district

East Priest Lake Fire Protection District was formed in 2020. It is the fourth Bonner County fire district on the shores of Priest Lake, in general stretching for ten miles on the east side of the lake from just south of Bear Creek to South Hunt Creek.

The district has a Fire Chief, an Assistant Fire Chief, a Captain, a Lieutenant, a Secretary, three elected Commissioners, and more than a dozen volunteer community fire fighters from within our district.

As our district gets established, EPLFD is extremely grateful for the support of the neighboring fire districts and thankful for our incredible district volunteer fire fighters! EPLFD chiefs and volunteers have been actively training with Coolin Cavanaugh Bay Fire District.
