Poland town manager resigns

By Daniel Hartill, Staff Writer 

POLAND — Town Manager Dana Lee sat behind his desk Monday looking tired.
"I think you have to become almost soulless, maybe, to do this job in this environment," said Lee, a veteran administrator who led Mechanic Falls for 16 years before taking the Poland job in 2007. "I don't want to be that type of a town manager that's got that dead look in his eyes when you come to see him and doesn't care and isn't really going to follow up and try to help you."
So he's quitting.
On Friday, Lee sent a short resignation letter to members of the Poland Board of Selectmen.
He's grown tired of dealing with an angry minority from the public who believe that their local government is hiding secrets, squandering tax money or bending rules for some residents, he said. The complaints from people — including Poland resident Michelle Arsenault — have inflicted too much stress, he said.
