Board of Directors

The North Sonoma County Healthcare District (NSCHD) was formed in 2001. Governance is by a five-member, publicly elected board, each serving four-year terms.

Hector Galvan (Chair)

Hector Galvan has been a Sonoma County resident for over 30 years, where he resides with his wife and three children. He is currently the City of Cloverdale Parks Superintendent and City Arborist, where he has been employed for over 15 years. He brings with him a lifetime of experience in landscape, open space forest management, public utilities and facilities maintenance, as well as many relevant civil licenses and certifications, including a degree in Environmental Horticulture. His educational background and interests also include coursework in physical therapy and nutrition. Hector’s main goal as a civil servant is to develop our parks and open spaces into focal points for the community to gather, in a safe and nurturing environment throughout the year. He hopes to contribute his expertise in parks and community development as a member of the District Board, which will allow for opportunities to incorporate new programs for families through outdoor activity.

Director Hector Gavan was recently highlighted in the Sonoma County Gazette at the grand opening of a basketball court in Cloverdale.
