An election to recall Trustee Terry Weible took place on January 13, 2026, in Dunbar, Nebraska. Weible was recalled in the election. The recall effort centered on allegations that Weible directed a street project that repaved about 250 feet of road in front of his home without securing approval from the full village board.

Recall supporters
The recall effort centers on allegations that Weible used his position to authorize paving a portion of the street in front of his own house, without approval from the full board.[1]
Recall opponents
According to News Channel Nebraska, Weible issued the following defense statement:
"The village board is well aware of the condition of the streets in Dunbar. And this recall petition is not about W. Indiana Street. It’s about bitterness and hatred some have for me, so a vote to not recall me will send a message that that’s not the community we want to live in, not for our children."
