With firm conviction, I endorse Paul Melanson’s election as a member of Clinton’s Board of Police Commissioners.

Paul was appointed two years ago to fill a vacancy and has distinguished himself as a member of the commission. His questions are pertinent and focused on strengthening the department’s positive impact on the community. His experience both as a former police officer, as well as a retired army helicopter pilot, has given him thoughtful insights about organizational structures and challenges that inform the commission. A resident of Clinton for over 30 years, Paul has deep connections in town. Being both knowledgeable and approachable, Paul represents the citizens of Clinton admirably.

It’s been gratifying to serve along with him. With your vote, Paul Melanson will continue to share his talents on the Board of Police Commissioners for the next four years.

Sincerely,

Lynn R. Hidek

Clinton
