PROVO, Utah (AP) — Utah County Commissioner Tanner Ainge has resigned from the county commission after being appointed to work with Republican Gov. Spencer Cox and his administration. The Daily Herald reported that the governor’s office announced Wednesday that Ainge was nominated to serve on the Economic Development Board, a 15-member board that advises staff on the “development, attraction, retention and expansion of businesses, industries and commerce within the state.” Ainge, who is the son of former NBA star Danny Ainge, was already planning to step down from his role at the end of his term. Utah County Elections Director Rozan Mitchell said the Republican Party Central Committee will now submit a recommendation for Ainge’s replacement.
