AI Summary
This bill provides for recall elections in the town of Granby. It outlines the process for initiating a recall petition, which requires 100 or more registered voters to file an affidavit with the town clerk. The town clerk then issues petition blanks, and if the petition is signed by at least 25% of the town's registered voters, the select board must call for a recall election. The bill specifies the grounds for recall, such as conviction of a felony or ethical violations, and the procedures for conducting the recall election and electing a successor if the incumbent is recalled. The bill also includes provisions to prevent the recalled official from being reappointed to town office for two years.
