CBA & CWDNA

As we are all aware, there are many issues facing both the residents and business owners in the Chandler Street area. With the rescent formation of the Chandler Street, Winfield & Dewey Street Neighborhood Association (CWDNA) and the ongoing efforts of the Chandler Street Business Association (CBA) the community as a whole will be well served.

With the CWDNA focusing on crime and grime, this will allow CBA to focus primarily on NSRA/Facade Programs and Perking Overlay issues. CBA is working closely with Worcester Common Ground and various Worcester City officials to get these programs off the ground.

While both groups will be utilizing many of the same resources this dual association set up will eliminate the need for city officials, city police, residents, business owners, etc. from attending multiple meeting and/or meetings that are not addressing agenda issues related to their specific focus.

The CBA would be interested in receiving correspondence or schedules of upcoming meetings of the CWDNA. so we may have a representative (Laurel) attend those meeting in order to keep updated on residential issues and receive feedback on any business issues that may arise. Likewise, CBA will send updates on our progress to whomever you designate as your representative.

To that end, we at the CBA feel that this new structure is a very positive one and should ensure that all issues within the community are being address in a positive manner and resolved in a timely manner.

If anyone has any questions or would like additional information, please feel free to contact me at laurel.ciprari@tdbanknorth....com or 508-890-3401.
