The Town Clerk issues wedding licenses, issues park passes, issues fishing and hunting licenses, issues permits for bulk garbage pickups and for the Patterson Recycling Center, and answers most general inquiries from the public. The Town Clerk is also the custodian of all official town records and documents and also is custodian of vital records including birth and death certificates. The Town Clerk is the official clerk of the Patterson Town Board. The Clerk has the responsibility for the posting of legal notices for town board meetings and public hearings and also produces minutes of town board meetings. Those minutes can be viewed by following the link on the town board information page. Minutes are only released to the public after they are approved by vote of the town board. The calendar of town board meetings and the agenda for the current town board meeting is also available on the town board page. The Town Clerk is a member of the Putnam County Board of Elections and is responsible for overseeing the integrity of local elections.
