Glenwood City frac sand mining recall fails. (Eau Claire Leader Telegram, 12/18/2013)
How it all began. The recall effort started when a citizens group, Glenwood City Citizens for Legal and Ethical Representation, expressed concern over a proposed frac sand mine about a half-mile from the school district’s building. The proposed mine site is not part of Glenwood City, but could be annexed to the city.
Mine opponents have voiced health, safety and quality of life concerns related to a mine. Proponents, including the three incumbents, argued the mine will generate jobs, improve the economy and create tax revenue.
