Sustainable growth of the county, we have a lot of interest in the development of the county, and we need to be strategic with the growth. Public safety, education and county infrastructure are always very important topics. With budgets being twelve months at a time it's difficult to achieve everything we would like to achieve for the citizens of Sullivan County. We need commissioners that will look beyond 12 months and plan for the long-term success of the county.
