"Exit Interview": City Clerk Donna Nault on Seven Years Serving Shelton

After seven years as Shelton’s City Clerk, Donna Nault is retiring — but not before sharing a behind-the-scenes look at one of the city’s most important (and least understood) jobs. In this "exit interview", Donna explains what a city clerk really does, how Shelton transitioned from a three-person commission to a seven-member council, and the challenges of keeping government transparent and neutral. She talks about Veterans Village, roundabouts, public engagement, and her advice to successor Mary Ricker. Plus, what’s next in retirement: travel, family, and a new kitten.
