Massachusetts H862 establishes a process for the recall of elected officers in the town of Sharon.

Massachusetts H862 details the procedure for recalling elected officers in the town of Sharon. The bill allows qualified voters to initiate a recall by filing an affidavit of intent with the town clerk, provided it includes the required number of signatures and valid grounds for recall. If the petition is certified, the select board must order a recall election within 64 to 90 days. The officer subject to recall can run for re-election, and if not re-elected, they are removed from office. The act also prohibits recalled officers from holding town office for two years post-recall.
