Speaker roster — Terre Haute City Council, 2026-05-14

Resolved against the closed candidate set from the published roll call (Ledger/Entities/Bodies/terre-haute-city-council.md): Azar, Boland, Chalos, DeBaun, Dinkel, Hinton, Loudermilk, Nation, Thompson — plus the agenda's document-credited City Clerk, Michelle L. Edwards, and the meeting's outside presenters/staff (named only where the transcript itself names them).

20 diarized voice labels carry substantial speech in this transcript (the other 48, sparser labels are merged into <other> by the diarization pipeline and are out of scope for this roster, per instructions). Of the 20:

• Confirmed: 3 labels — speaker_23/speaker_25 (Todd Nation, merged; three independent naming events including the mover attribution on the Warren Village II motion) and speaker_169 (Curtis DeBaun IV; four independent direct-address instances, one before each of his four CF1 motions).
• Probable: 11 labels — speaker_3 ("Bree," one direct address), speaker_42 (Tammy Boland, one direct address), the seven-label Michelle L. Edwards cluster (speaker_48, speaker_52, speaker_56, speaker_58, speaker_83, speaker_94, speaker_177 — two direct-address instances across the cluster plus repeated unbroken mid-sentence continuations), and speaker_140/speaker_217 (Kandace G. Hinton, each on a single contextual naming event; not merged with each other since they are separate turns on separate agenda items, not one diarizer-split utterance).
• Role-only: 6 labels — speaker_0 (a Rose-Hulman presenter, no name recoverable), speaker_20 (a councillor, no name recoverable), speaker_53 and speaker_147 (unnamed CF1/tax-abatement staff — kept separate from the Michelle L. Edwards cluster because speaker_147 explicitly refers to "Michelle" in the third person, proving at least one distinct second staff voice is present, and speaker_53's two short interjections cannot be cleanly assigned to either voice), and speaker_77/speaker_191 (the presiding-officer motion-restate-and-vote-call function, well-evidenced as a role but never named in this transcript).

No vote, motion, or characterization of a third party in this meeting is attributed to a name below confirmed. The two labels that carry motions by name — speaker_169 (Curtis DeBaun IV, four CF1 motions) and the merged speaker_23/speaker_25 (Todd Nation, the Warren Village II motion) — are both graded confirmed on independent, repeated direct-address evidence.

Open questions for the audit pass

1. Presiding-chair identity unresolved. speaker_77/speaker_191 perform the motion-restate-and-vote-call function on every CF1 item (8 occurrences) but are never themselves directly addressed by name in this transcript. In this vault's 2026-04-09 roster for the same body, this exact function was attributed to Anthony J. Dinkel as presiding chair; if an out-of-band source (e.g. the published minutes) confirms Dinkel presided on 2026-05-14 too, this pair should be upgraded accordingly — left unnamed here since no in-transcript evidence supports it.
2. Two-staff ambiguity in the CF1 section. speaker_147 is definitively a second, unnamed staff voice (it refers to "Michelle" in the third person). speaker_53's two short interjections could belong to either that voice or the Michelle L. Edwards cluster; left role_only rather than assigned either way.
3. "Bree" (speaker_3) has no surname recoverable anywhere in the transcript; if the Rose-Hulman capstone team roster is available from the agenda packet or a follow-up source, this should be upgraded with a full name.
4. speaker_20 clearly speaks as a councilperson (describes commuting from home to City Hall via Holman) between Council President Hinton's question and the chair's introduction of Councilperson Nation, but matches none of the three public-comment items the agenda explicitly credits (3.c Hinton, 3.d Nation, 3.e Boland) — likely an unscripted fourth remark the agenda's terse summary didn't capture. No name recoverable from this transcript alone.
