Utah’s state treasurer on Monday announced his resignation, effective April 30.
Utah State Treasurer David Damschen was selected by the Utah Housing Corporation board of trustees to take the position as president and CEO of the Utah Housing Corporation starting May 3, according to a news release issued by the Utah Office of State Treasurer.
Damschen will take the position in place of Grant Whitaker, the Utah Housing Corporation’s current president and CEO, who is retiring after 42 years with the organization and 12 years as its leader.
Damschen will take the helm of the corporation, which was created by state lawmakers in 1975 with a mission to provide affordable financing of single-family homes and apartments for people with low and moderate income.
