Town Of Fallsburg Adopts 3 New Policies

The Town of Fallsburg is working with the Creating Healthy Schools and Communities (CHSC) Healthy Communities Program Coordinator, Wanda V. Cruz, to lead the way in Sullivan County for preparing their grant prerequisites related to the Bipartisan Infrastructure Law (BIL). They are starting by including Complete Streets in their Comprehensive Plan and adopting policies related to Safe Routes to Schools, Vision Zero, and Active Friendly Routes to Everyday Destinations, all of which are related to Complete Streets. Fallsburg is within the CHSC catchment area, which also includes Bethel, Liberty, Mamakating, Monticello, and Thompson. If any of these municipalities are interested in doing the same as Fallsburg, they can contact Wanda V. Cruz at 845292-6180 ext. 110 or email her at wvc22@cornell.edu.
