Strengthening our Region
In 2020, Bolton partnered with the towns of Coventry, Mansfield, and Tolland to create a regional economic vitality plan. This plan has six themes: agriculture, culture & entertainment, higher education, outdoor recreation, small business & entrepreneurship, and visibility & marketing.
This plan was created through input provided from a summit at Patriot’s Park Lodge in Coventry in 2019. At this summit community members attending from the four towns broke into groups to discuss the various themes and projects the towns should implement in the coming years. These themes and ideas were the foundation of the 4-Town Regional Action Plan for Economic Vitality.
