(KLZA)-- Tuesday, August 15th is the date of a recall election in the Village of Rulo.
Registered voters will cast a “yes” or “no” vote on the ballot question: “Shall Quincey L. Smith be removed from his position as a member of the Board of Trustees of the Village of Rulo?”
Voting will take place at the Rulo Library until 8:00 p.m.
Quincey Smith is Chairperson of the Village Board of Rulo.
Kevin Barber was the principal circulator of the recall petition. The statement of reasons for the recall effort includes violation of the open meeting act. Operating village equipment without proper training and breaking bid contracts.
In a statement of defense, Smith sites his experience as an Army engineer as training to run equipment, denies violating the open meetings act and said he is not aware of bid contracts being violated.
In addition, in his response, Smith requested a full audit of all Village of Rulo records for the past five years, alleging a conflict of interest by Barber.
