Oregon: Fairview Mayor and two councilmembers hit with recall effort

Fairview Mayor Ted Tosterud and Councilmembers Ed Bejarana and Tamie Tlustos-Arnold are facing petitions filed by two former city councilors (Ted Kotsakis and Steve Owen). There doesn't seem to be a listed reason yet for the recall effort, though Kostaskis quit part way through his term in 2015. Owen was the senior member of the council, quit two months later. The two councilmembers facing the recall were appointed to replace them. Tosterud was a strong supporter of Kotsakis.

Tlistos-Arnold is the Republican nominee for an Oregon State Senate seat.

Petitioners need 419 signatures.
