Recall Leader Begins Reclaim Group

Frank Orzell, a leader of the failed Recall Coeur d'Alene effort in spring 2012, has sent the following to The Spokesman-Review:

Following up on Recall CdA in which more than 5,000 signatures were collected to remove the mayor and three council members from office, Reclaim Coeur d’Alene has launched a campaign to put in place a local government that will:

  • Represent the will of the people  --  calling for a public vote on major issues (such as McEuen)
  • Effectively manage city staff with accountability and reasonable compensation practices
  • Replace arrogance with respect for all;
  • Attract new business and job opportunities.

According to Chairman, Frank Orzell, who led the Recall CdA effort, the group will provide information on relevant issues through its web-site and public events for direct interaction with candidates. More here.

Question: Will we see Balance North Idaho return this fall to do battle with the Recallers?
