Chamber Corner: Worcester Green Corps to clean up, beautify city streets
Timothy P. Murray
While undoubtedly there are new levels of private investment taking place in Worcester that create jobs, expand the tax base, and generate economic activity, there has been one negative issue that has continued to fester: the amount of trash and litter along city streets, and in neighborhoods and environmentally sensitive areas.
Here at the Worcester Regional Chamber of Commerce, we have observed this problem and have regularly heard complaints about it from chamber member businesses and chamber board members alike. Recently, former Worcester Mayor Raymond Mariano, who now writes a weekly column in the Telegram and Gazette, wrote about litter throughout the city, as did Worcester Magazine columnist Janice Harvey. Both correctly stated that a more collective effort was needed to address this challenge.
