Town
Clerk for the Town of Brant is Thea A. Ells.
The
Office utilizes two Deputy Clerks,
Barbara
Daniel and Jeanette Miruso.
The
following is a brief description of this elected position:
The tradition of the Office of Town Clerk is historical, having
served as a direct link between Town Residents and their local
governments and can be traced back to Biblical times ... Acts,
Chapter 19, Verse 35 ...”and when the Town Clerk had appeased
the people...''
While
Town Clerks are generally credited with issuing licenses, that
is only a small part of this complex job. The Laws mandate many
duties, but many more go well beyond those mandated because Town
Clerks serve as a major source of information to all.
This
position requires a sincere dedication to community. Town Clerks
must be informative, patient and cheerful, possess the ability
to listen and advise, be receptive to new ideas, and able to maintain
a sense of humor while performing duties
in a professional manner.
