The San Diego County Board of Supervisors voted 4-0 Tuesday to approve a resolution calling for the immediate resignation of Supervisor Nathan Fletcher before his scheduled resignation on May 15.
"We encourage him to resign immediately so he focus solely on his treatment, and the people of San Diego can move forward with the representation they deserve."
Fletcher was one of the most powerful men in the county when he announced on March 26 that he was entering a treatment center outside the state for post-traumatic stress, trauma and alcohol abuse, and was abandoning a planned run for state Senate.On March 29, he announced his resignation from the Board of Supervisors effective at 5 p.m. on May 15, following a tumultuous day in which he admitted to the affair.
Supervisor Jim Desmond, one of Fletcher's most vocal opponents throughout the COVID-19 pandemic, has called it unacceptable that Fletcher would stay on the board and collect $25,000 from taxpayers in the quasi- resigned period through May 15.
