Enterprise Zone
"Promoting Business & Neighborhood Investment"
About
the Program
The Fort Wayne
Urban Enterprise Zone is a 4 square mile area located in the
center part of the city. It is a targeted area for
physical revitalization, job creation and improvements in social
and economic conditions. Residents and qualified businesses
receive several tax benefits to encourage the stabilization of
the Zone and reinvestment in the Zone. It provides excellent
incentives to businesses, while being good stewards in the Zone
service area. To learn more about this Department of
Economic Development program, visit the Urban Enterprise
Association Website at www.fwuea.org.
Partnerships
The Urban
Enterprise Association builds many partnerships to improve the
economic and social conditions of the Zone service area.
