(KLZA)--An effort to recall Peru, Nebraska Mayor Katy Novak has failed.
 57 signatures of registered Peru voters were required to force a recall.
Peru City employee Phillip Wemhoff circulated the petition and submitted 60 signatures, however,  6 of them were invalid leaving the effort three short of the number required. 
Novak was elected in October of 2024.  Another recall effort can not be filed for 12 months.
