Augusta County residents have mounted an effort to recall five county supervisors who voted to approve unpopular tax assessments. Virginia does not have a traditional recall process, and signatures will go before a judge who will determine if the supervisors have been derelict in their duties. Recall leaders will have to collect signatures of 10% of the voters who voted in the original supervisors election.
Agusta County residents are petition the Board of Supervisors to relieve new tax assesments, some of which have gone up as much as 400 percent. Petition organizers say that if county supervisors ignore their petition they will take the matter to court.
