Gilbert mayor Jenn Daniels unexpectedly resigns [View all]

GILBERT, AZ (3TV/CBS 5) - The Town of Gilbert will be looking for a new mayor. Gilbert Mayor Jenn Daniels resigned on Tuesday. She told the Town Council of her decision.

"Thank you to those who put their trust me in me to lead. You have been patient and generous, and I will always be grateful for this remarkable experience," Daniels said in a statement.

She didn't give a reason why she stepped down, though she had announced in February that she wasn't running for re-election. Daniels only had five months left on her term. She was appointed interim mayor in July 2016 when former mayor John Lewis resigned and then she was elected in November of 2016.

Daniels' full statement can be read below.

I have loved serving the Town of Gilbert for more than 11 years. I have worked alongside amazing people - staff and council members, regional and school leaders, business owners, volunteers, faith groups and friends and neighbors - all working to make our community a better place to live, work and play.
