Chico Mayor Andrew Coolidge Served Recall Notice
Looks like District 5 voters finally had enough.
A newly formed organization, Chico Voters, served Andrew Coolidge with Notice of Intent to Recall at the council meeting Tuesday night.
The organization doesn’t have their website up yet, but promises it will be live shortly. We are looking forward to hearing more; Coolidge has been terrible for Chico and we support an effort to remove him now rather than in 3 years.
Spokesperson Morgan Kennedy has indicated that the group intends to keep costs down by getting the recall initiative on the June 7th, 2022 ballot.
From their press release:
Andrew Coolidge violated his oath to uphold the Constitution. And those violations came with significant human, fiscal and environmental costs to the City he is sworn to serve.
He is incompetent. He is fiscally irresponsible. He disregards the law.
INCOMPETENT. Favors special interests rather than acting to “protect and enhance the community’s quality of life” (Mission of the City of Chico). An avoidable lawsuit that resulted in the City’s inability to protect our parks and waterways.
FISCALLY IRRESPONSIBLE. Supports fiscally imprudent decisions - the untimely ice rink, the airport “resting” site, unneeded no-bid contracts, with associated lawsuits and legal fees - that a city already in crisis simply cannot afford.
DISREGARD FOR THE LAW. Demonstrates disregard for the rule of law and the normal procedures that ensure a free society. Ignored sound legal advice that resulted in a costly lawsuit against the City.
Mr. Coolidge ran on a platform of public safety and sound fiscal policy. His failure to embrace common sense guidance, adhere to norms of transparent governance, and listen to the will of the people has resulted in a community that is worse off than when he swore that oath.
Stop The Bleeding. Recall and replace Andrew Coolidge.
