AMARILLO, Texas (KFDA) - There are several propositions City of Amarillo residents will vote on during the November elections.

Proposition D is written on the ballot as:
To Amend Article II, Section 24 of the Amarillo City Charter to change the recall procedures to reduce the minimum number of signatures required to qualify the recall election of an elective officer from an amount equal to at least thirty (30) percent of the registered voters within the city with at least one-fifth (1/5) of same certifying that each signor voted for the officer in the last election to the amount equal to at least thirty (30) days to sixty (60) days from the filing of the required affidavit and to provide for validation period and notice to the elected officer and City Council with corresponding recall limitations.
