Opening Remarks Plymouth Candidate Forum October 24, 2012
I brought with me to the office of Grafton County Registry of Deeds, 30 years of small business management experience, technology integration experience, GIS mapping training, planning board training from my association with LSUVRPC and solid knowledge of county government. Since taking office, I have negotiated a new recording software contract for the first time in 25 years that puts the office on solid footing for the future and opens new streams of revenue while protecting the very valuable asset that is the data base of the registry.
I have restructured our budget revenue and expense line items for increased transparency and established a base line for future analysis. I have met with leadership of the NH Land Surveyors Association to hear their concerns and to establish dependable protocol with them. I have opened channels of communication with the NH Department of Justice on what the FBI calls the fastest growing white collar crime; deed and mortgage fraud. Our software partner, Fidlar Technologies offers as a free service; Property Fraud Alert, which provides the first line of defense in protection of your most valuable asset.
I have negotiated a cooperative agreement with the NH Department of Revenue which will save money and increase efficiency. I have established email communication with all 38 towns and the city of Lebanon that offers unity and efficiency. I have developed relationships with the other 9 Counties RDs that will bring us closer to across the board unified protocol and policy. I will always be committed to a customer service that recognizes that many of our citizens do not possess the computer skills to seek out their own documents on the internet.
The nature of the office itself is the connection of the past, present and future. I am 52 years old and my life experience also connects past policy with present and future possibilities. I am far from finished, in my second term I will meet with our town clerks, librarians and real estate and legal professionals to listen and to train our people to increase efficiencies in all of our communities.
My website KelleyMonahan.com has my two annual reports and many other pages of information. I am passionate about the land of our county, the people whom I serve and the job itself. I thank you for your continued confidence in my leadership. I request the honor of your vote on November 6th so that I may continue to serve the people of Grafton County and the great State of New Hampshire.
