Peter Dunn, Worcester chief development officer
By Grant Welker
Dunn may be the city official with most oversight and influence over city-owned Polar Park itself, as well as helping to shape what the neighborhood around it will look like.
Dunn, who was promoted to chief development officer in May, already helped establish the city’s Downtown Business Improvement District, implemented its tax increment financing policy, and created a small business resiliency grant program aiding businesses during the coronavirus pandemic. As the city administration’s link to the Worcester Redevelopment Authority, which technically owns the ballpark, it’s on Dunn to keep the $130-million-plus ballpark moving along and to stay abreast of everything slated to go up next door.
