Dear Victor City Council, Staff, and Citizens,

Over the last 4 years I have had the privilege of serving as an elected official for the City of Victor. However, I find it necessary at this time to announce my intention to resign as Mayor effective September 30th, 2011.

I am extremely proud of the accomplishments achieved by Council and Staff during my time in office. Substantial updating of City Code, Envision Victor, major infrastructure projects in both the Water and Sewer departments, Main St realignment, Victor Transit Center construction, Depot acquisition, park master planning, and Music on Main are just some of the highlights of the success directly reflected in your hard work.

Although I had every intention of fulfilling my 4 year term as Mayor when running for office, personal responsibilities with my business and family no longer allow me to dedicate the time and energy the position deserves. Victor, and Teton Valley, is at an important cross roads. Will we as a community finally break free of the boom / bust cycle that has been plaguing the Valley since the dawn of the railroad, or will we rise above and forge a new path of sustainable growth and prosperity? The answer lies with our leadership and I no longer feel I have the time available for the job.

Thank you for all your support during my time as Mayor, it has been an honor to work with you all! I look forward to helping the City in other ways in the near future.

Sincerely,


Scott Fitzgerald
Mayor
City of Victor
