-
Recall elections require a petition signed by at least 10% of voters from the last school board election, filed with the election authority and district board secretary
-
Election authority has 30 days to verify petition signatures; if sufficient, the recall election must be held between 45 and 120 days after the board receives the petition

If voters approve recall, the member is removed; if voters reject recall, the member remains and cannot face another recall during their term

School board vacancies in the affected district must be filled by appointment by the county executive with county council consent, rather than by remaining board members
