The Christian County Enterprise Zone has been a major tool for the community that helps bring businesses to Central Illinois.

Edwards explains why the Enterprise Zone is so beneficial to Christian County and the state has decided that you can no longer reapply Enterprise Zones so now everyone is back to square one.

Edwards likes that Christian County seems to be ahead of the game with a great consultant to help them every step of the way in the process.

Edwards knows how competitive of  a process it is to apply for one of the 90 enterprise zones the state of Illinois is giving out. She doesn’t want to see Christian County miss out on potential businesses coming to the area.
