Worcester Mayor Joe Petty on Traffic Safety, WPI Hotel Purchases, and Councilor Criticism – Key Updates and City Plans
Worcester, MA- Worcester Mayor Joe Petty updates us on the city’s efforts to curb traffic violence. He says lowering the speed limit to 25 is one of the tools in the tool box, as is street redesign but enforcement is necessary for it to work. Petty tells us that in conversation with the City Manager it has been suggested there is grant money that may be used to get more officers involved in some type of task force. Petty says the criticism against Councilor Donna Colorio is unwarranted. That the council voted to have a survey done, that the data is in, and it will be reported out of committee. Petty said although Colorio is the chair of traffic and parking any councilor could have spoken up at any time. On WPI buying the two hotels at Gateway Park he says they are still subject to the TIF agreements and that he feels the city does have some standing and leverage. He acknowledges how much the colleges and universities add to the city and that the city would not have had the success it has had if not for them. The Council is looking at having the Colleges and Universities pay 25% of the tax due.
