Things Aren't So Tranquil in Glenwood City Wisconsin Lately

Frac sand mining issues could lead to recall elections for Glenwood City, Wis., officials. (Pioneer Press, 10/9/2013)

Excerpt:     A group calling itself Glenwood City Citizens for Legal and Ethical Representation filed petitions with the city clerk Wednesday morning calling for the recall of Mayor John Larson and city council members Nancy Hover and Dave Graese. Should the petitions prove to have enough valid signatures, elections would take place sometime in the next few months. 

The group behind the effort issued a news release Wednesday saying the petitions cited "malfeasance" as the reason for the recalls. It said the mayor and two city council members did not take a petition for a referendum.
