Six candidates are running for election this fall to three open seats on the Ketchum Fire District Commission , marking voters’ first opportunity to weigh in directly on the board’s membership since it was established in January .

Current Commissioners Pete Schwartz, Susan Scovell and Rachel Williams were sworn in by Interim Fire Chief Seth Martin at the first Fire District meeting, in January, after voters approved the creation of the district in November 2024. Martin said at the time that the three new commissioners were the only qualified applicants who submitted letters of interest to the Blaine County Board of County Commissioners, which selected them for their new roles.

The six candidates running for election are listed below in alphabetical order by last name.
