Can the Enterprise Zone boundaries be expanded to include my business or residence?
It is possible to modify the boundaries of an enterprise Zone; however, an enterprise Zone boundary cannot be modified for the sole inclusion or benefit of one business or individual. Indiana requires that several levels of strict threshold criteria be fulfilled before considering a city for a modification of their enterprise Zone boundaries. In addition, it must be demonstrated that the modification would significantly improve or maintain the economic health of that area. Indiana statute allows two boundary modifications within the twenty-year life span of an enterprise Zone; and Marion was awarded an expansion of the Marion enterprise Zone in 2001.
