Attend a Public Draft Plan Workshop!
Visit the events page to register for our in-person workshop on March 30th at the Worcester Senior Center or our virtual workshop on April 12th via Zoom videoconference.
Worcester Now | Next is an eighteen-month-long citywide planning process that will engage the community in exploring issues such as transportation and mobility, housing, economic development, climate, urban form, and land use, among many others.
The project will generate a long-range plan that knits together past, present, and future initiatives covering the entire City, from downtown to its dozens of neighborhoods. The plan will provide a coordinated roadmap for the future development and evolution of the City, and will establish a framework for more detailed studies down the road, but is not meant to be a granular study of every issue.
Join us in developing a citywide plan that focuses on inclusion, integrity, and innovation as core values guiding growth and change in the city.
Learn more below about the process and how to get involved.
