Oregon: Signatures validated in recall against three Cottage Grove Councilors -- Recall set for July 30

Signatures have been validated in the Cottage Grove City Councilors Mike Fleck, Chalice Savage and Alex Dreher. Hopefully, we'll see the numbers soon. 

The recall appears to be about the homeless policy. There was a failed recall attempt against Fleck, Savage and John Stinett in 2023, where petitioners handed in 662 signatures and needed 654. Only 463 signatures were validated. That recall was over the city's homeless policy and a lack of responsiveness. 

Update: The recall election has been set for July 30.
