Action Plan Download
Sullivan developed its action plan with the goal of making the town a better place for residents to grow old, safe and happy. Recognizing that Sullivan residents are diverse in their interests, experiences and strengths, the plan contains multiple projects, activities and events that promote varied opportunities to engage our older adults. Municipal leaders in Sullivan recognize the importance of engaging all residents in community planning, focusing the plan on all eight domains of livability.

Transportation
Increase the accessibility and availability of transportation for residents who do not drive or own a private vehicle through development of a volunteer driver fleet. -
Health and Community Services
