Annual Report FY17 

GRAFTON COUNTY REGISTRY OF DEEDS
Kelley Jean Monahan Register
Annual Report Fiscal Year 2017
To the Citizens of Grafton County, the Honorable Commissioners and Delegation Members:
   This will be my seventh Annual Report and every year, I am rewarded by the value of the role that we play and by the level of service that this office provides to the public. As the world continues to become more complex and confusing, it is very gratifying to have the confidence in our systems and data base to know that we can provide relief to people seeking answers in the form of the Official Public Record.
    In September of 2016, I was chosen by our affiliate, the New Hampshire Register of Deeds Association, to speak to the New Hampshire Tax Collectors Association on the role of the office, the history, the foundation and how very fortunate that we are in New Hampshire to have had founders who placed great value on the permanent record of interest in real property. Article 71 of The New Hampshire Constitution addresses the election of County Registers of Deeds.  The Registers of Deeds are responsible for protecting the historic documents of the past, providing quality service to the public in the present, and preparing for the technological innovation for the future. It is vital that we have a working relationship with our Town Clerks and that they understand how we are connected.
    In January, for the second year in a row, I spent a great deal of time on testimony to the County and Municipal Government Committee of the New Hampshire House of Representatives. I received a unanimous vote of support from the committee to find the bill inexpedient to legislate. I hope that this issue will not surface again. Each County is unique, we inherit a variety of situations from past decisions. The people of the County elects each Register to serve the office, not special interests.
    In February, I attended the PRIA/ Property Records Industry Association Winter Conference in Albuquerque New Mexico. PRIA brings together the lending community, title, technology, and the elected officials. This event brings all interests together to achieve best practice standards as new technology and law meets practical application. E-notary is a subject that is on the horizon. A global time stamp, Greenwich Mean Time has been presented as the best format. We also discussed Block Chain Technology. Block Chain is the foundation of Bitcoin, a de-centralize digital ledger. The State of New Jersey and Cook County, Illinois have already launched this new system of record management. Upon returning, I shared all the information that I had received with the NHRD Association, as I feel it is vital for all 10 Counties of New Hampshire to work together to achieve uniform practices.
Respectfully Submitted,
Kelley Jean Monahan
