Opportunity Zones
Governors across the U.S. have the ability to designate 25% of their state’s low- to moderate-income census tracts as Qualified Opportunity Zones. In 2018, Pennsylvania Governor Tom Wolf designated all four census tracts in the City of Coatesville as Qualified Opportunity Zones. Click on the interactive map above to explore these areas.

LERTA
The Local Economic Revitalization Tax Assistance (LERTA) program allows for the graduated payment of tax assessments relative to any building or property improvements. The LERTA district overlay includes the central business district and provides an incentive for property improvements. More information is in the LERTA Ordinance. Here’s an example of the benefits:
- Current property tax assessment: $100,000
- After repair/improvement tax assessment: $150,000
- Tax payments continue at the base assessment level but the differential ($50,000 assessment value) is graduated over five years.
