Recall.

So it seems like those behind the councilor Gardner recall are trying one more big push.  It seemed like the issue was going to die and there was no way they where going to get the signatures needed.

Now it seems like the recall are making one more push, this time taking to the Internet and facebook to try to get the young people on board.  More specially the skateboard group.  A group I feel that has been wrongly gone after, however the issue they are telling the skateboarding groups is not a reason for a recall.  The recall is trying to rally the skateboarders to there side saying look at the vote five years ago making it illegal to skateboard downtown and in canal park public side walks.

Let's clear a couple of thinks up.  First the ordinance did not just apply to downtown and canal park it is  city wide, many have the miss understanding  that is it just downtown and the canal.  Second it is not illegal to skateboard you can still use the street, this goes for bikes as well.  

Also let's be clear that councilor Gardner is very much for the skate board community, she would love to see another skate park in Duluth, bayfront park would be a great place to have one.

Skaters instead of falling for a trap by this organization to recall councilor Gardner what you should is talk to the parks and rec department and get councilors with you to create a good park for you to skate at.
