Utah County

Seventeen Utah County state lawmakers have signed a letter asking Commissioner Greg Graves to resign.

The letter signed by 17 of the 22 legislators whose districts cover at least part of Utah County cites explosive and vulgar behavior by Graves.

According to the letter, there is a sheer volume of evidence of Graves' negative behavior including a county investigator's report, public account and first-person testimony.

County leaders also released a 100-page sexual harassment complaint against Graves last week.

The letter says the legislators see Graves as a bully and as a result "have lost all confidence" in his ability to serve in a public office.

Graves did not immediately respond to requests for comment Wednesday.
