With tax season coming, businesses in the Region 9 Economic Development District can learn about applying for Enterprise Zone Tax Credits.<\/p>\n

The Region 9 district will hold an informational training for permitted businesses.<\/p>\n

\u201cThe Enterprise Zone Tax Credit is a statewide program that identifies areas of Colorado for tax incentives to invest in local businesses,\u201d said Helen West, Cortez\u2019s Community and Economic Development Specialist.<\/p>\n

Businesses located in the Enterprise Zone \u2013 Montezuma, Dolores, San Juan, most of Archuleta and parts of La Plata counties \u2013 are eligible for multiple state tax credits.<\/p>\n

According to a news release, businesses earn the credits through investments in training, job creation, vacant building rehabilitation, equipment and more.<\/p>\n

Additional incentives can be provided to Enhanced Enterprise Zones, which consist of Dolores, Montezuma, San Juan and parts of Archuleta counties.<\/p>\n

Chuck Forth, a certified public accountant from Cortez\u2019s Forth & Associates PC, will be at the training to assist businesses and answer any questions people may have.<\/p>\n

The training will take place on Thurs., Nov. 2 from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. at the Cortez Welcome Center, 928 East Main St.<\/p>\n

The city of Cortez will provide lunch for registered participants.<\/p>\n

Additionally, the session is available through Zoom for registered participants.<\/p>\n
