This has caused a significant stir in the region, since, from all appearances, Oxnard seemed to be an excellent candidate.  Instead of Oxnard, the state chose to award its new designations to:

  • Hesperia
  • Taft
  • Tulare
  • Pittsburg
  • Sacramento

The Pacific Coast Business Times showed considerable consternation at the state’s decision:

“Oxnard is the biggest city in the biggest county in the tri-county region. It has a pro-business attitude, plenty of land and utility resources, a large and eager workforce and a desire to lead the state’s economic recovery. But that apparently means nothing in Sacramento, where the California Enterprise Zone Program recently turned down Oxnard’s request to join 41 other enterprise-zone locations in the state.”
