Signings for the departure of mayors in the north gathered on the basis of the Government of Kosovo Administrative Guide, which was approved in early September 2023.

If the CEC confirms that the signatures collected are enough and verify them, then the vote for the chairman's dismissal will be held within 45 days. For this vote to be successful, it takes 50 percent, plus one vote of citizens for voting.
