Tired of all the misinformation? Want to see the truth? Click here to find out.
Just so that everybody understands...the question has arisen as to what constitutes a vaild recall request. For the record, this town council welcomes any process set forth which protects the interests of the people we represent and the right to a proper recall election is one of thos processes which we hold dear.
This has been answered several times and here it is again:
The elements missing from the current recall request is that there no specific alleged incidents and when they allegedly occured for each person named in the request. Their is no statement of fact contained within the request regarding the people named in the recall. The only person for which specifics are given are in regards to a former town council member whom which we cannot take any action against as they no longer serve on the council.
ARTICLE XIII: ELECTIONS
