Goals For Charlotte County
John Fleming For Commissioner
Trust isn’t given, it’s earned. Just as he did as a detective, John knows that real leadership starts by showing up, listening, and being accountable. As your full-time County Commissioner, John will be present, accessible, and actively involved in the community. He’s committed to rebuilding trust in local government by putting people first and making your voice heard every step of the way.
Transparency starts with clear communication. John believes the public deserves straight answers, not government jargon or spin. He’s committed to breaking down complex issues in plain language, so every resident can understand what’s happening and why. As your Commissioner, John will tell the truth, even when it’s tough, because honesty builds trust, and trust builds stronger communities.
From hurricanes to pandemics to economic downturns, we’ve seen how quickly life can change. John’s decades in law enforcement have trained him to think fast, stay calm under pressure, and make tough decisions when every second counts. As County Commissioner, he’ll bring that same steady leadership to protect and support our community, no matter what comes our way.
