VISIT OUR YOUTUBE CHANNELA Clackamas County commissioner accused of theft and forgery earlier this week has stepped down from her position after a fellow leader called for her to resign.
In a statement issued, Clackamas County Chair Craig Roberts personally requested Commissioner Melissa Fireside’s departure. Officials announced she submitted her resignation letter on Friday, effective immediately.
“I recognize that for many, this decision is not soon enough, and I know how difficult and upsetting this situation has been for our community, and I want to thank you for making your voices heard,” Roberts said in a statement. “The Board remains committed to fulfilling our responsibilities to you and ensuring that the business of Clackamas County continues to move forward.”
The county administrator has already started searching for a new commissioner with a website that outlines the hiring process. Roberts said the community will remain informed throughout the process, as “public involvement is crucial.”
Fireside was elected as commissioner in November, replacing former county leader Mark Shull. Although the allegations against Fireside were publicized just this week, she was indicted for first-degree aggravated theft, first-degree theft, two counts of computer crime, two counts of identity theft and two counts of first-degree forgery on Feb. 28.
