Oregon: Coburg Mayor, City Councilmen easily survive recall vote

Coburg Mayor Mayor Jae Pudewell and two Council members easily survived a recall vote. Pudewll won 236-124, City Councilor Jerry Behney, prevailed 241-119 and Councilor Brian Pech triumphed 234-126. Turnout was more than half the 689 registered voters.

The issue was complained over a $26.5 million wastewater management plant. Pudewell is the second mayor to survive a recall over this issue (Judy Volta beat a recall back in 2011).

The recall is estimated to cost $1,300-$1,500 dollars.
