KRBD: Recall targets leaders of Ketchikan Indian Community





KRBD Community Radio reports on a recall effort at the Ketchikan Indian Community in Alaska:
A group of Ketchikan Indian Community members is collecting signatures to recall seven of the eight KIC Tribal Council members.

The group alleges that the seven members violated the tribe’s Constitution when they voted in late May to temporarily appoint the Tribal Council President Irene Dundas to act as the KIC administrator. They further allege that Dundas acted improperly when she fired the KIC human resources director, at the direction of the Tribal Council.

Richard Jackson is the main petitioner, and has set up a table at The Plaza mall. There are separate petitions for each of the Tribal Council members that his group seeks to recall. In addition to Dundas, those members are Gloria Burns, Verna Hudson, Donna Frank, Rob Sanderson, Andre LeCornu and Norman Arriola.
