Voters recall WBCSD trustees
PRIEST RIVER — Voters have successfully recalled West Bonner County School District trustees Keith Rutledge and Susan Brown.
Embattled trustees say recall about politics, not kids
An upcoming recall is a partisan attempt to oust conservative politicians from office, according to a pair of West Bonner County School District board trustees. The comments are part of written rebuttals submitted to the county clerk's office by WBCSD board chairman Keith Rutledge and vice chair Susan Brown as they prepare for an Aug. 29 recall election. Residents in western Bonner County launched the recall drive in mid-June, following increasingly contentious board meetings after the board mulled selling Priest River Middle School and Branden Durst, a former policy analyst with the Idaho Freedom Foundation, was announced as a superintendent finalist.
West Bonner trustee recall moves forward
A campaign to recall a pair of West Bonner County School District board trustees will move forward. Enough valid signatures were collected by campaign organizers to get a recall on a ballot Aug. 29.
