WHAT IS AN OPPORTUNITY ZONE?
Established in 2017 as part of the Federal Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, Opportunity Zones, allowed only in distressed census tracts, offer preferential tax treatment.
Each year, Lakeshore Advantage submits census tracts for consideration. Only 25 percent of the distressed tracts in the state receive this designation. Our region received two Opportunity Zone designations in the city of Holland.
Lakeshore Advantage offers numerous resources for businesses wishing to establish themselves in an Opportunity Zone.
