Michigan: Maple Valley Township Supervisor loses recall vote over wind farms

Maple Valley Township Supervisor John Schwandt was ousted on Election Day by Dan Boes, 449-378. The recall effort was over two votes regarding wind farms. One was a vote in favor of a six month moratorium and the other was the cancellation of a ballot question on wind farms. Schwandt is also facing an opening meeting violation complaint over closing public comments over parking. Presumably, the recalls are from opponents of wind farms.  At the same election, a wind energy ordinance was shot down, 593-265.
