Speakers:

Worcester City Council economic development subcommittee met to hear public comment and staff presentations on proposed zoning changes, potential reductions to off‑street parking minimums, tree canopy protections, and the idea of a city sports commission tied to hosting NCAA events. The committee voted to recommend two rezonings to the full council and asked administration to draft a parking‑ratio zoning amendment for later review.
