Eldridge served as the association’s President between 2001 and 2007. According to court documents, over a four-year period, she wrote 22 checks without authorization. Prosecutors allege 16 of those checks were written to her husband. She is also accused of using association funds to pay insurance bills and to make loan payments.
Eldridge will be arraigned on the charge next month.
Last year Eldridge was removed from office as Mayor of Roy after it was learned she had a criminal history. She pleaded guilty to a felony theft charge in 1990 but did not disclose that when running for office. In January she was fined $800 after pleading guilty to one count of “providing false information.”
