I may be wrong, but I do not see in S.150 that the Town Clerk is required to do anything. I believe the Vermont Department of Motor Vehicle would use a letter from the Town Clerk as a form of evidence of residency. If you as Clerk are not sure the person is a resident then I would not write the letter. John P. Cushing Town Clerk & Treasurer Town of Milton PO Box 18 Milton, VT 05468 (802) 893-4111 Email: [log in to unmask] Visit our website: www.milton.govoffice2.com -----Original Message----- From: Vermont Municipal Government Discussion Network [mailto:[log in to unmask]] On Behalf Of Huntington Clerk/Treasurer's Office Sent: Saturday, July 15, 2006 8:56 AM To: [log in to unmask] Subject: certification letter Maybe I missed the discussion on this... I received a letter requesting that our office (and yours) provide a statement of certification of residency in order for someone to get a Vermont drivers license. Having delivered mail in our town for 8 years, I pride myself on knowing most people here. However, I am uncomfortable signing a document stating that someone lives here unless I know that the person lives here. I thought the statement should read, " I certify ______________ says s/he is a Vermont resident who claims to reside in Huntington, having shown me a piece of mail addressed to him/her in this town." Any comments or suggestions? Or is what we are to say per statute. Heidi Racht
