Efforts to recall Peggy Price hits road bump

IMPERIAL COUNTY, Calif. (KYMA) - The effort to recall Imperial County Board of Supervisors Chairperson Peggy Price has hit a road bump.

Chairperson Price was recently served with a Notice of Intent to Recall over her approval of a lot merger, paving the way for a planned data center in Imperial County.

According to the group, "Not in my Backyard Imperial," the original petition was rejected due to a clerical error.

The group says they have to start collecting signatures all over again.

"Some errors with the signatures that were collected. And there was apparently that we exceeded the 200 word limit. I don't know what kind of, how that was counted, but I mean at some point, it's expected. We don't do this for a living. We're just residents, neighbors  that you know getting organized, pushing together. So, you know but we're not backing down."

Price will need to be served again after enough signatures are collected.
