Many residents have voiced concern about our City Council’s commitment to transparency as it relates to recent decisions and actions. A separate effort, led by The Committee to Recall Jamelle McKenzie, is underway to address this specifically within Ward One. While United College Park will remain focused on education and engagement for the City as a whole, this completely separate committee will focus only on the recall initiative. We will be sharing more information about the Ward One recall efforts shortly.
