I am a resident of Poland writing to support John Cleveland for the Maine Senate seat in District 15.

As the owner of Community Dynamics Corporation, Cleveland has assisted the town of Poland with economic development. He helped Poland acquire more than $5 million in grants that was used to upgrade and expand water and sewer lines. He also worked with town officials to bring new businesses to town and to assist other businesses in expanding.

With that kind of background, John Cleveland knows how to serve the community of Poland, as well as the rest of the district.

That is the kind of leadership needed now.
