The minutes print a mover as “Rich Letarte”, “Richard Letarte”, not as a person. Matching that to Richard H. Letarte is ours: the surname and first initial against the members this board’s roster prints within a year of the meeting, and only where exactly one member fits. The latest 11 are listed; every vote is on the board’s own votes page.

Named in the town’s documents

26 of the 11,062 minutes, agendas and other documents the town published print “Richard H. Letarte” in full, from Jun 2, 2015 to Jun 15, 2023. That is a floor: minutes mostly print “Mr.” or “Ms.” and a surname.

What this page does not show

  • A start or end date. The town’s rosters are annual and undated within the year.
  • Pay, hours or which fund pays the post. Rosters print a name and a title only.
  • That one name is one person. Two people with this name in two bodies or two decades would share this page.
  • Why a name stops appearing. A move, a leave, a retirement and a roster that left somebody off all look the same.
