SEC. 3. RECALL.
   Electors shall have the power to remove from office by recall election, any elected official of the municipality. After an elected official has served six months of their term, a petition demanding their recall and removal may be filed with the Clerk of Council. Such a petition shall be signed by electors eligible to vote for the office to which the recall petition is directed equal in number to twenty-five percent (25%) of the total votes cast for such office at the last election therefor. If the Clerk shall find the petition sufficient they shall promptly so certify to the Council, shall deliver a copy of such certificate to the official whose removal is sought and make a record of such delivery. If such official shall not resign within five (5) days after the day on which such delivery shall have been made, the Council shall fix a day for holding a recall election not less than thirty (30) days, nor more than forty-five (45) days from the date of delivery. At such recall election this question shall be placed on the ballot: "Shall (naming the officer) be allowed to continue as (naming the office)?" with provision on the ballot for voting affirmatively or negatively on such question. If a majority of the votes cast shall be voted negatively, then such official shall be considered as removed, their office shall be deemed vacant and such vacancy shall be filled as provided in this Charter. The official removed by such recall election shall not be eligible for appointment to the vacancy created thereby. (Amended 11-3-70.)
