Colorado: Two Cripple Creek Councilmembers face January 24 recall vote

Cripple Creek Council members Mark Green and Charles Solomone are facing a January 24th recall vote. The recall is over a plan for a gift shop at the heritage center, with accusations that the city department will compete with private businesses as well as complaints that they aren't connected with the community. 

Mayor Milford Ashworth and Councilwoman Melissa Trenary signed the petitions. Bruce Brown and Jared Bowman are running to replace the two.

The article notes that Cripple Creek hasn't had a recall in two decades, but there was one for a school board member in 2019.
