Establishes a process for recall elections in the town of Sudbury, Massachusetts.
This bill creates a procedure for recall elections in the town of Sudbury. It mandates that if a recall petition, signed by at least 10% of registered voters, is submitted to the Town Clerk, the Select Board must notify the targeted official. If the official does not resign within five days, the Town Clerk must organize an election between 65 and 100 days later. The ballot will ask voters if they want to recall the official and, if so, which candidate should replace them. If a majority votes for recall and a replacement candidate, the new candidate will serve the remainder of the term.
