Right now is an exciting time for the City
of Zion. As a community, we're experiencing a re-birth
and revitalization. As a lifelong resident of Zion, I've
seen this change begin to take hold. Our local economy has
been strengthened and diversified by bringing in a variety
of retail businesses, industry and upscale housing developments
to meet the growing needs of our community.
We believe Zion is a great place to do business. As you become
more familiar with our city, you'll learn that we have
all the essential elements: a skilled workforce; land ready
for development with access to air, rail and highway routes;
and a very strong, almost unprecedented, economic incentive
program.
The Economic Development Department of Zion will do many things
to make your transition into our community as easy as possible.
One thing we will not do is waste your time. I've made
a personal commitment to making this process as simple as
possible. That's why, with the full support of Mayor
Lane Harrison and the City Council, we've created the
unique “Your Own City Hall Meeting” pre-development
concept. By scheduling a “City Hall Meeting,”
you'll meet simultaneously with all city officials you'll
need to interact with to break ground on your project. This
means you may be able to get your business up and running
months sooner than you may have expected, and will cut costs
in the process.
To schedule “Your Own City Hall Meeting,” or obtain
a packet of information about our city and the various sites
and incentive we have available, please contact the City of
Zion Economic Development Office at 847/746-4015. I look forward
to working with you to forge a relationship between your enterprise
and the City of Zion.
Sincerely,
Economic Development Director
City of Zion, Illinois
