Clark County trustee resigns after DA filed petition to declare her seat vacant

Katie Williams is resigning from her position as the Clark County School Board’s District B trustee effective immediately, she stated in a Wednesday letter addressed to Board President Evelyn Garcia Morales.

In her resignation letter, Williams pushed back against the Clark County District Attorney’s investigation’s findings into her residency, but said she did not want to engage in a prolonged court fight with only three months left in her term.

“While I am confident that I would prevail in connection with the petition filed this morning by District Attorney (Steven) Wolfson, litigating with the Clark County District Attorney’s Office for the three (3) remaining months of my term would not be in the best interests of my family, and would not be consistent with my obligation to the service of my country through my current enrollment in the (Sergeants) Major Academy of the United States Army,” she said in her letter that she shared with The Nevada Independent.
