To the Editors:

As you consider the choices in casting your vote in the upcoming election, I encourage you to vote for Joanne King for Town Councilor At Large. Throughout her years on the council, she has proven to be an elected official who is intelligent, knowledgeable and fair. She has supported the rights of students when efforts were made to change the housing ordinance to limit the number of individuals on a lease.

She was chair of the council when she supported expanding the Recycling Committee to include critical sustainability efforts. She has given her unwavering support to the Maine Street Station project and the efforts to bring Amtrak service to Brunswick. In her spare time, she and her family are hosting a Bowdoin student through the Bowdoin Host Family Program.

As someone who has worked with Joanne King on town issues for several years, both on and off the council, I have appreciated her good counsel and fair dealings. She knows Brunswick and she appreciates the value that Bowdoin College adds to our community. Please vote for Joanne King.

Sincerely,

Margo Knight

Town Councilor, District 6
