NEW TEA CHANGES COMING SOON
On September 7,2007, the Department of Housing and Community
Development released the application for new Targeted Employment
Areas (TEA). Recent legislation AB 1550 requires all Enterprise
Zones that obtained a TEA prior to the availability of the
2000 US census data, to update their TEA boundaries. San Jose
has submitted an application to the state and is waiting for
final approval. The State TEA authorization is expected in
early 2008. New TEA address ranges and maps are not available
at this time. In the meantime, the State will allow businesses
to continue using the current TEA
street addresses and map until
the new TEA is approved.
