A hearty Newburyport Posts welcome to Sean Sullivan, the city's new planning director.
After the fuss and fury that followed the firing of Nick Cracknell and preceded the hiring of Nancy Colbert, this hiring seemed ridiculously low key. The mayor apparently interviewed a few folks, picked his favorite, brought him before the council and got their approval.
How dull.
But, the new guy seems to check out. Read Katie Farrell's piece here in the Daily News. Our own Lowell source gave a positive review, so we don't see a single red flag. The only potential problem will be the time he wastes telling folks, "No, no relation to those Sullivans." (At least I assume that's the case.)
Here's hoping he hits the ground running next year.

It would help if this guy had a planning degree, like his predecessor... This looks more like politics than planning.
Or perhaps more policy than planning. You're right, definitely looks like the mayor went with more of an economic development type. But it looks as if he's done some planning work.
