Finance director resigns in Jerome

TWIN FALLS, Idaho (AP) - The finance director of Jerome has resigned.

The Times-News reports (https://bit.ly/1hmKTI3) that city officials announced Burke Richman’s resignation on Friday.

Jerome City Administrator Mike Williams says the city won’t comment on personnel matters.

The city’s former administrator and former fire chief quit after the city billed a resident nearly $100,000 for putting out a large fire downtown last spring.

But Williams says the most recent resignation is unrelated to those events.
