Awful. If you are lucky to get through or leave a message, they either snark at you or never call back. Dreadful community service.

City Clerk provided incorrect information to one of my couples purchasing a marriage license. This caused them unnecessary upset during this pandemic. If you are from out of state, go somewhere else to buy your marriage license.

one of the worst public offices I've come across. doesn't seem like anybody works here when you call. every extension goes to another extension. you think you finally get to a voicemail, it leaves you a different phone number to call and then hangs up on you. I can't believe I have to give them one star just to rate them. 0 stars

I called the city clerks office and got a very nice person, who answered my questions on receiving an early voting ballot for my brother who passed away earlier this year. She explained to me exactly what I had to do with it and how to get his name removed from the list so he is not sent other in the future.

I needed a VT registration form notorized and I should have gone here first. They were pleasent, quick, helpful (they had a witness on hand) and they didn't even charge me! I tried 4 times to get this simple form completed at ups store (in plaza across street) and there was always a problem! And they can't and won't provide a witness. I hope this helps people to avoid the frustration I went through.
