California: Yorba Linda Councilman facing recall petitions over vote on police services contract

Yorba Linda Councilman John Anderson is facing a recall petition, with voters upset about a deal to contract police service functions with the Orange County Sheriff's Department (they turned down a deal with the city of Brea, which has patrolled Yorba Linda for 42 years).


Petitioners have 120 days to collect 8,700 signatures, representing 20 percent of the city's registered voters. If successful, the recall election would be on November's presidential ballot.
