Recall petitions filed for multiple White Pigeon board members

Three additional White Pigeon Township Board members are being targeted for recall by a township resident.

In addition to heading up a campaign to oust Supervisor Don Gloy, resident Anita Casada has filed recall petitions against township treasurer Trudy Gloy, and township trustees Jean Tefft and Vince Schroen.

All four petitions were filed Friday in the county clerk’s office.

In the petitions she submitted, Casada has alleged Trudy Gloy acted in self-interest by voting to re-zone property Gloy purchased to allow for development of a residential storage building.

Meanwhile, Casada said Tefft did not make budget documents related to the township’s proposed 2023-24 fiscal-year available in advance of a June 6 public hearing on the budget.

Casada alleges Schroen acted in an unprofessional manner toward township residents at a November 2022 meeting.

A clarity hearing, which has the potential to determine the fate of the recall attempts, will take place at 9 a.m. June 27 in Courtroom B at the county courthouse.

If the commission OK’s the language, then Casada must secure at least 378 signatures of White Pigeon Township’s registered voters for the matter to move forward.
