Opportunity Zones 2.0 census tract nominations
Long Beach
Summary
The state can only nominate 25% of eligible census tracts for the federal Opportunity Zones 2.0 tax-incentive program, which drives private investment into distressed areas. Long Beach nominated 14 of its 44 eligible tracts, and four to five appear likely to make the cut — the commission is sending letters of support before the August 28 deadline.
