Bill > H3575

This bill authorizes the town of Conway to provide for recall elections of any holder of an elective town office. The bill outlines the process for initiating a recall, including filing an initial recall affidavit signed by at least 50 registered voters, verifying the signatures, and collecting the required number of signatures on a recall petition. If the petition is certified as sufficient, the Selectboard must hold a recall election within a specified timeframe. The incumbent may be a candidate in the recall election, and if recalled, the candidate with the highest votes will be elected to the office. The bill also includes provisions limiting the timing of recall attempts and barring recalled or resigned officials from being appointed to town offices for a period of time.
