Corridor Nine Chamber holds economic development meeting

Westborough – Local town government officials and leaders from the business community gathered for a meeting at the Corridor Nine Area Chamber of Commerce offices Feb. 28 to discuss the region's economic status. Things are slowly improving, they noted, but there are still issues of concern that could hamper a full economic recovery. Northborough Town Administrator John Coderre said that Northborough Crossing, which opened in October 2011, had been instrumental in helping to keep the town's taxes down.
