  • revisiting worcester's zoning ordinance

    Worcester, MA
    Other

    This October 1998 report from the Worcester Research Bureau addresses Worcester's lack of private development despite national economic growth, noting declining construction since 1994 and high office vacancy rates that threaten the city's financial sustainability. The report recommends reforms to the zoning ordinance and permit process, including establishing a pre-planning review process through a Development Office, creating a "one-stop shopping" system to coordinate approvals across city agencies, increasing planning staff resources, and employing professional staff for technical reviews. These measures are intended to streamline the development approval process and make Worcester more competitive in attracting private investment.
