Recall Karla Miller

Restore Common Sense to the Mecosta County Drain Commission

Mecosta County Drain Commissioner Karla Miller's reckless decisions are crushing taxpayers in our community. This is where you can learn more about the effort to RECALL KARLA MILLER and restore common sense to the Mecosta County Drain Commissioner's Office.

Why The Recall?

Karla Miller put Mecosta County taxpayers on the hook for a $5.5 million dollar project that was unnecessary and reckless.

... And now residents are being handed the bill, with many owing tens of thousands of dollars for an unnecessary project they never wanted. COULD YOU BE NEXT?

No Competitive Bidding

- Karla only got one estimate for this project. When residents are being handed the bill, shouldn't there be a competitive bidding process to ensure taxpayers get the best deal possible?

Karla Used Tax Dollars to Fight Tax Payers

- When taxpayers revolted, Karla Miller used even MORE taxpayer money to hire a law firm to fight the public and the County Commissioners who questioned the project.

Lack of Communication

- Karla failed to keep landowners and even Big Rapids Township informed on what they owe. Taxpayers, many of whom were elderly and have lived there for decades, were blindsided with massive bills into the tens of thousands of dollars.

...And the worst part?

With record rainfall this spring, Tonkin Drain worked just fine as-is without the need to spend millions of dollars. THE PROJECT IS COMPLETELY UNNECESSARY.

This should never happen again to ANY property owner in Mecosta County!
