Several members of Glendale City Council could face a recall election, in part, over allegations they took away money reserved for public safety and instead put it into a reserve fund, but a number of local officials deny those charges.
The recall petitions being circulated against Councilmembers Lauren Tolmachoff and Bart Turner contain a statement that blames those individuals for “diverting money earmarked for public safety into a rainy day fund.”
Bea Wyatt, who has provided assistance to the committees spearheading those recalls, repeated those claims, to a potentially larger audience, during a June 19 radio interview with NBC Sports Radio, a Phoenix station that broadcasts at 1060 AM.
