I feel incredibly lucky to have found a job and a town in April of 1999 that has fit me so well, I haven't wanted to leave! First as Town Planner, then as Selectboard Assistant, and then as Town Administrator, I have tried to ascertain and then implement the "will" of town residents – and I feel proud of what we have accomplished together over the past 24 ½ years.

Charlotte has incredible beauty – what a great place to come to work everyday! But it's really all of you that have made this job a real joy. Working with so many wonderful, thoughtful, intelligent, caring and hard-working people has inspired me to do my very best. I have certainly grown during my time here. Thank you for all you have given me.

I've also had the good fortune to have worked with skilled, diligent and dedicated staff, who I have also learned from, and who have helped the town accomplish its goals.

I am both comforted and excited on your behalf knowing that Nate Bareham will be taking over the reins of the position of Town Administrator. You are in good hands.

Please come say "so long" to me and "hello" to Nate on Tuesday, November 28th from 5 pm - 7 pm at the Senior Center. We hope to see you there – but if you're not able to make it, you're welcome to stop by the Town Office before the end of the month.

Thank you, and cheers!
Dean Bloch
