Westford Needs Economic Development Committee Volunteers

The Town of Westford is in need of volunteers for the Economic Development Committee.

The Board of Selectmen is seeking residents interested in being appointed to the Economic Development Committee. Current vacancies include one full member and one alternate. These appointments are made for a three-year term.

The Economic Development Committee advises the Board of Selectmen and other town boards on issues concerning bylaws, policies, regulations, and zoning that foster commercial growth, strengthen the local economy, and are consistent with maintaining the character of the community. They work to identify changing economic trends and develop recommendations to maximize interest in the community and attract these potential new businesses in generating local employment opportunities.

The Economic Development Committee was created in 2012, with members appointed by the Board of Selectmen.
