The Gary Urban Enterprise Association (GUEA) was a 501(c)(3) organization developed to provide support and economic aid to the community of Gary, Indiana. It had a short history characterized by corruption. ==State Enterprise Zone Program: Policies, and Governance== In 1983, the Indiana General Assembly created the Enterprise Zone Program. Under this program, local enterprise zone areas were created to address general and economic distress, provide community support, and develop revitalization efforts. Local zones programs were created in twenty-seven various cities including Gary, Hammond, Portage, East Chicago, Michigan City, South Bend, Elkhart, Fort Wayne, Kokomo, Marion, Lafayette, Frankfort, Indianapolis, Terre Haute, Connersville, Bloomington, Bedford, Mitchell, Vincennes, Jeffersonville, New Albany, and Evansville. The local zone programs “serve as catalysts to promote the area to outside groups and individuals and act as a liaison between and among businesses, residents, and state and local governments.” All Enterprise Zone Programs received oversight and governance from a 20 member State Enterprise Zone Board. This Board was made up of 15 voting members and 5 non-voting members. The Board was charged with broad powers to designate, review, approve, or disqualify enterprise zones. Staff for the Board and daily Zone Programs issues were handled by the Indiana Department of Commerce (IDC). As originally enacted under Indiana Code, 4-4-61 and then under 5-28-15, Enterprise Zones expire “ten years from the day on which it is designated by the (Enterprise Zone) Board.” Any zone may “be renewed for a period of five years” based “the success of the enterprise zone.” After the initial five-year period, a second and final five-year renewal could be granted. After twenty years, a complete re-designation would need to take place. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Gary Urban Enterprise Association」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
