A new recall attempt against New Buffalo Mayor John Humphrey has failed, with the Election Board rejecting the petition language over complaints of language and water bill costs.
Last year, there was a serious attempt against Humphrey and Councilman Brian Flanagan. That recall failed, with officials knocking out enough signatures to kill the recall. 294 signatures were handed in for Humphrey and 271 for Flanagan. At least 80 signatures were tossed out on each one and they needed 219 to get on the ballot.
The issue was a vote in favor of a ordinance banning short-term rentals. Humphrey is also facing a petition over having someone kicked out of a council meeting.
