One of the DeWitt County District C representatives has stepped down from the County Board. 

On the WHOW Morning Show Friday, DeWitt County Board Chair Joe Witte told regional radio that Tom Farris provided the board a letter of resignation due to personal reasons. Now a new District C representative will have to be appointed. 

While the Republican Committee has the opportunity to appoint a new representative, it's not completely up to them. Witte notes it must be voted on by the full board and meet the residency requirements for District C. 

A new representative will be appointed in the next 30-60 days, and will hold the position for the remainder of Farris's term.
