Wyoming: Attempted recall of Opal Mayor fails due to impossibility of State Recall Laws

Very odd situation in Opal, where the City Attorney told the council that they could lead a recall of Mayor Mary Hall (who was recently appointed after the previous mayor resigned), though he was wrong. 

The Attorney believed that a recall was allowed, but found out that Wyoming's law only allows for recalls in governments with a commission-style (which is apparently none). 

It is an odd feature that the state allows recalls, but no one can access such a rule. 

Update: The City Attorney resigned
