Project Info

Title

2008 Enterprise Zone Re-application

Description

The proposed project is a re-application by the City of Oakland for the California State Enterprise Zone, to continue the existing designation that began in 1993 for the next 15 years. The proposed project area consists of 73 census tracts and covers approximately 23,500 acres, including most of the City of Oakland west of I-580, and portions of the City of Emeryville. The project will continue the annual hiring of 4,500 employees in the project area, through a package of economic development incentives. The area within the project boundary is fully urbanized, and the proposed re-designation does not require any new commercial or industrial development. No land use changes to either the General Plan or the Planning Code are expected because of the proposed project.
