Recall supporters
Petitioners began the recall process in April 2018. Recall organizer Linda Nicklas pointed to three primary reasons for the recall: the condition of the city's streets, the city council's decision to allow local marijuana businesses, and alleged mismanagement of the city’s finances.[2]
