COLORADO'S ENTERPRISE ZONE (EZ)

The Enterprise Zone (EZ) is a state program that seeks to encourage development in economically distressed areas through the use of State income tax credits. As a tool which attracts investment, creates jobs and stimulates economic growth, the Enterprise Zone is critical to the Colorado economy. Utilized by businesses and community projects of all sizes and types, small and large, urban and rural, new and existing, it is the most comprehensive and impactful tool to stimulate the economy across the state of Colorado. The elimination of the Enterprise Zone would have far reaching and devastating effects of all Colorado communities, their economies and the State as a whole.
