Who would receive a petition for the recall of a city council member?

A petition for the recall of a city council member is typically submitted to the local election authority or city clerk's office. This body is responsible for overseeing elections and ensuring compliance with local laws regarding recall procedures. In some jurisdictions, the petition may also need to be filed with a specific board or commission that handles electoral matters. After submission, the election authority will verify the petition and manage the process for a potential recall election.
