Reece M. Hrizuk Resigns As Payette County Commission

Letter from Reece M. Hrizuk

My priorities in life have always been God and my family, my law practice, and my community, in that order. When I first ran for Payette County Commissioner in 2018, I was newly married and had no children. At that time, I was able to balance my priorities. Since 2018, life happened–my wife and I were blessed with the birth of our son in 2020 and our daughter in 2022, as well as a substantial increase in business as we have worked to build up my law practice. Currently, I am finding myself working evenings and most weekends. Quite frankly, my priorities and how they are currently balanced are now backwards, out of balance, and need to be reconciled. Some weeks, I have days where I do not see my children due to working evenings. I am missing family events, holidays, church, and most important of all, I am missing my children growing up. I have seen too many elected officials throughout the country sacrifice their family lives for public service and I cannot do that to my family.

Therefore, I have decided to resign as Payette County Commissioner for the Third District, effective at 5:00 p.m. on Monday, May 15th,” This was a very difficult decision that has been weighing on me the past few months and one I have not taken lightly. I have been honored and privileged to serve the people of Payette County as a Commissioner these past five years. I am thankful for the people of Payette County, the other elected county officials, and the county employees, all of whom have been a pleasure to work with during my time in office.

I have the utmost faith in Commissioner Riebe and Commissioner Kelso and have no doubt that they will continue to keep Payette County on the right course. However, I would not be able to resign without first ensuring that someone I trust to serve as Commissioner for the Third District would be willing to apply for appointment. I know that I have no bearing on the decision appointing my replacement, nor should I. However, I am comfortable knowing that former Fruitland Mayor Ken Bishop, one of my political mentors and someone I hold in extremely high regard, will be applying for appointment.

Very truly yours,

REECE M. HRIZUK
