After an extortion investigation into Kaysville Councilman Dave Adams became public, the City Council is planning to request that he resign.

The council is scheduled to vote on the request, along with a resolution that would allow the council to censure Adams, on Thursday evening.

“Our council feels that we as a body need to be above reproach,” Kaysville Mayor Katie Witt said. The investigation into Adams “taints” the City Council’s process, she said Tuesday, her first day in office. “We want the full trust of our community,” she added.

The City Council “does not take a position on the guilt or innocence of Dave Adams,” according to the resolution.
