Description:
Abstract:
An Enterprise Zone is a specific geographic area targeted for economic revitalizing. Enterprise Zones encourage economic growth and investment in distressed areas by offering tax advantages and incentives to businesses located within the zone boundaries.

The Florida Enterprise Zones Program was established in 1994 following legislation that repealed the existing federal government's Empowerment Zones and Enterprise Community Zones and established a new application and designation process. The program operates at both the state and federal levels, providing incentives that accommodate both rural and urban areas.

Under the new application process, local governments are required to establish a strategic plan, form a local Enterprise Zone Development Agency, and submit a specific map showing the boundaries of the zone. The application process and zone activities are administered by the Governor's Office of Tourism, Trade, and Economic Development (OTTED), which also provides technical assistance and information.

Purpose:
The data was created to serve as base information for use in GIS systems for a variety of planning and analytical purposes

Contact_Instructions:
Although all of the local zones have the same basic goals of economic revitalization and community redevelopment, all of the zones are different. They offer their own local incentives and they maintain their own personal agendas for the communities. The local government contact provided in the attribute table serves as the primary point of contact for additional information about a particular zone.

Attribute_Accuracy_Explanation:
An Enterprise Zone is a specific geographic area targeted for economic revitalizing. Enterprise Zones encourage economic growth and investment in distressed areas by offering tax advantages and incentives to businesses locating within the zone boundaries.

Currently there are 55 state Enterprise Zones. Included within that total are:

* 3 Federal Enterprise Communities * 2 Federal Empowerment Zones * 27 Rural Enterprise Zones * 28 Urban Enterprise Zones

Process_Description:
The original list of Enterprise Zones, their contact information, and respective local Enterprise Zones Development Agency web pages were obtained from the Florida Enterprise Zones Program. Polygons were created from detailed maps or legal descriptions provided by local governments. Boundaries from paper maps were digitized over the 2003 Cadastral property parcels with various other existing layers for reference, such as TIGER Roads, USGS Railroads (24k), FDOT Local Roads, and Public Land Survey System (24k) using ArcGIS Desktop 9.0.0.535.

Graphics and attributes of the original 25 Enterprise Zones current at the time of data development were created and visually verified by Camisha Clarke and Lindsay Horton.

Locational quality information was maintained throughout data development by recording the USERNAME, DATESTAMP, and SOURCE for each feature. See METHOD field to determine which process was used to develop each feature.

Finally, useful fields from the original list were joined to the polygons.

More information about Enterprise Zones and statewide incentives can be obtained from the Enterprise Florida website at <http://www.floridaenterprisezones.com>.

Process_Description:
In 2006, this data was downloaded in shapefile format by the GeoPlan Center from the Florida Department of Environmental Protection: <http://www.dep.state.fl.us/gis/datadir.asp> When received, the data was in the FDEP Albers Projection.

Additionally data was also downloaded in shapefile format by the GeoPlan Center from HUD: <http://www.hud.gov/offices/cpd/systems/mapping/rcezec/> When received, the data was in the NAD83 Decimal Degrees Geographic Coordinate System. These shapefiles contain the 1990 census tracts that make up the Renewal Communities, Empowerment Zones and Enterprise Communities. These shapefiles are based on the U.S. Census Bureau's 1990 Cartographic Boundary Files.

GeoPlan, during the QA/QC process included the following aspects: (1) Reprojected data to FGDL HPGN. (2) Restructured the HUD data's Attribute table to match that of the FDEP's. (3) Merged the two datasets together. (4) Added DESCRIPT item based on ZONE_NAME. (5) Added FGDLAQDATE based on GeoPlans acquisition date. (6) Added AUTOID.
