Description: Avenal voters are gearing up for an April 28 recall election targeting the mayor and three city council members. Organizers say leaders cut the fire contract, replaced it with volunteer coverage, and overlooked public safety — leaving the city without fire or ambulance services. Pro-recall residents warn “Our city is collapsing” while city officials accuse the effort of being politically driven and promise legal countermeasures.  Please Like, Comment and Follow 'Philip Teresi on KMJ' on all platforms: ---     Philip Teresi on KMJ is available on the KMJNOW app, Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube or wherever else you listen to podcasts.  -- Philip Teresi on KMJ Weekdays 2-6 PM Pacific on News/Talk 580 AM & 105.9 FM KMJ  | Website  | Facebook | Instagram | X | Podcast | Amazon | - Everything KMJ KMJNOW App | Podcasts | Facebook | X | Instagram  See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
