Assemblymember V. Manuel Pérez Discusses the Future of the EZ Program
Assemblymember V. Manuel Pérez, representative from Imperial County, weighed in on KXO Radio discussing the future of the Enterprise Zone program:
“We cannot overlook the state’s Enterprise Zone program. I spent a lot of time last year facilitating a hearing process to examine many aspects of this program, and I appreciate the efforts of stakeholders to participate in the dialogue. Last month, I introduced AB 2476 to serve as a vehicle for statutory reforms to the program. As the bill currently reads, it makes changes to the eligibility criteria for Targeted Employment Areas. I see this measure as a starting point and look forward to ongoing and productive discussions as we refine the bill language and make an important program even better.”
