(KLZA)-- An effort to recall Falls City Mayor Mark Harkendorff has failed.
Friday, May 30 was the deadline for the petition organizer, Kaylie Ractliffe to submit recall petition with a minimum of 475 signatures of registered Falls City voters.
Richardson County Clerk Mary Eickhoff reported that no signed petitions were turned in to her office by the 5:00 P.M. Friday deadline.
In listing a reason for filing the recall effort, Ractliffe listed unprofessional behavior, including insulting city workers, leading to the resignation of every city lineman and dismissing community feedback without respect or personal accountability, saying Harkendorff's actions reflected poorly on out city and leadership.
