Speaker roster — Vigo County Budget Committee, 2026-08-13

No agenda was available for this meeting, and the vault has no closed-set roll-call roster for the Vigo County Budget Committee (Entities/People/ covers only Terre Haute City Council). This roster is built entirely from transcript self-identification and direct address, per the evidence grading in Skills/vigo-civic-archive/SKILL.md §12b. Only the 20 labels carrying substantial speech are resolved; the 228 sparse labels merged into <other> in the source transcript are out of scope.

Probable (1 label / 1 person)

• "Vicki" — speaker_75. Addressed directly while mid-readout of a revenue figure, and continues reading the figure out immediately after — one naming event, so held at probable rather than confirmed. Carries the large majority of this meeting's fund readouts and vote calls.

Role-only (19 labels)

Chair, by function: speaker_10 (opens and closes the session). Auditor's-office-style staff narrating fund mechanics: speaker_70, speaker_127, speaker_161, speaker_398, speaker_400. Likely committee members with no recoverable name: speaker_124, speaker_242 (both show councillor-like behavior — tracking notes across meetings, and naming fellow committee members casually), speaker_8, speaker_12, speaker_128, speaker_136, speaker_141, speaker_143, speaker_155, speaker_245, speaker_264, speaker_388, speaker_532.

A contradictory-evidence label, handled per the standard's rule

speaker_127 answers immediately after a direct address to "Judy" [t=861→864] and, separately, immediately after a direct address to "Larry" [t=5028→5031]. Both names recur from the 2026-08-24 roster for this same body (Judy: staff; Larry: councillor) and both are independently confirmed to be real people present in this room — speaker_242 names them both together at [t=5637] ("Yeah, Nancy. It's confidential. Yeah, Larry can't tell you.") — but neither naming event can be preferred over the other for speaker_127 specifically. Per the standard ("if one label's evidence is contradictory, mark it role_only rather than picking the more frequent name"), speaker_127 stays role_only. Neither "Judy" nor "Larry" could be pinned to any of this meeting's 20 resolvable labels; both remain unresolved voices inside <other>. A third recurring name, "Nancy," is addressed twice ([t=399], [t=1001]) but never followed by a labeled response, so she is likewise unresolved among the 20.

A near-merge considered and rejected

speaker_398 and speaker_400 share a register (explaining binder-vs-email discrepancies to the committee) and one exchange reads as a single continuous sentence split across the boundary ([t=2504]→[t=2512]). They were not merged: a later exchange ([t=4233]→[t=4236]) is unambiguous back-and-forth dialogue between two people, not one voice continuing — speaker_400 states a dollar figure and speaker_398 responds to it ("We'll give you a printout. We'll have to come back and have you guys approve that as well."). Recorded here so the next reviewer doesn't have to redo the comparison.
