Action Plan Download
Auburn Hills developed its action plan in association with the Age-Friendly Auburn Hills leadership team, a mix of city departments, community leaders and volunteers. The action plan commits to building and maintaining accessible, affordable housing so that older residents can age in place, keeping streets clean and well maintained to encourage walkability, and providing the community access to information and events.
Action Plan Highlights
Civic Participation and Employment
Create a reciprocity-based work trading system, or "time bank," to provide opportunities for older adults looking for volunteer or paid work.Transportation
Improve public transit ridership by installing bus stops with electronic tools to update bus schedules in real time.
