WESTOVER INDUSTRIAL AIR PARK

The Westover Metropolitan Development Corporation's (WMDC) purpose is to aid private enterprise in the orderly conversion and redevelopment of 1,340 acres of surplus property declared surplus by the federal government at Westover Air Force Base, Massachusetts. Since its inception, the WMDC has dealt with the problems of acquiring title from the federal government for the surplus property under its purview and planning a logically derived conception of development of a complex facility. A major accomplishment during the past year was finalizing the acquisition of 873 acres of surplus property in the Town of Ludlow and concluding the Lease-Purchase Agreement with the Massachusetts Municipal Wholesale Electric Company.
