Marlborough Residents Asked To Weigh In On Development Plan

MARLBOROUGH, MA — Residents and local businesses are being asked to help determine which development priorities Marlborough should pursue in the years ahead.

The Marlborough Economic Development Corporation and the City of Marlborough are collecting feedback on the Draft Marlborough Forward Plan. Responses will help officials prioritize proposed actions involving investment, land use, economic development, housing and downtown improvements.

The planning effort is intended to guide future decisions affecting growth and development across Marlborough. Because the document remains in draft form, MEDC and the city are seeking community input before moving forward with its identified priorities.

The request for feedback extends beyond residents. Business owners, community organizations and other stakeholders with an interest in Marlborough’s future are also encouraged to participate.

Among the subjects covered by the plan are where future investments should be directed, how land use decisions should support the city’s goals and what steps could strengthen Marlborough’s economy. The plan also considers housing initiatives and improvements to the downtown area.

Community feedback will be used to assess which actions should receive the most attention as the city and MEDC continue their planning work.

The full draft is available through the MEDC website. Feedback can be submitted through the online Marlborough Forward survey.
