Flordia: Petitions taken out against Miami Garden mayor

Miami Garden Mayor Oliver Gilbert is facing recall petitions, with complaints about the city's crime rate, budget handling and debt. Gilbert is also accused of a violation of the state's campaign law in 2011. He made a $500 donation, which he self-reported and paid a $1,500 fine.

Gibert has been in office as mayor since August, 2012. Before that, he was a councilman since 2008 (he may have been elected as councilman, not clear from the story).
