Portland E-Zone Toolkit
The Portland E-Zone is a five-year property tax abatement program. In order to qualify a firm must be making new investment in construction or equipment to leased or owned property within the E-Zone boundary and must be creating new or additional employment. Once an authorized company enters into the program it will receive full tax abatement on all qualified property for five years, consecutively, as long as Annual Compliance with program requirements is met.
