08/01/2025

(KLZA)-- An effort to recall Auburn, Nebraska Mayor Chris Erickson is underway.

Amanda Powell says in the petition that she has initiated the effort because Erickson abuses his office, is ineffective as a leader and appointed someone with a conflict of interest who profits from the city.

The declaration also says the Mayor shuts down community questions, cuts off residents and prevents open dialogue with the council and uses a dictatorial approach eroding community trust and collaboration. She also alleges inequality and unfair treatment based on identity and status.

The petition was filed July 23 and Erickson has 20 days to respond to the to the petition.

After the petitions are prepared by the County Clerk's Office and picked up by Powell, she will then have 30 days to gather the needed 313 signatures of eligible voters to force a recall election.

Erickson was sworn in as Mayor of Auburn in December of 2022 and served as a City Council member prior to being elected Mayor.
