In April 2009, 33 parcels within Forge Park were designated by the Commonwealth of Massachusetts as the Forge Park Economic Opportunity Area. This designation allows the town to negotiate tax increment financing agreements with potential developers, and allows the potential developer to access additional tax incentives through the state.
At least half of the developed parcels within the proposed Forge Park Economic Opportunity Area can support additional development/redevelopment. In addition, at least four parcels within the EOA are undeveloped, including two prime locations at the intersection of Forge Pkwy. and Rte. 140.
