On September 17th, 2020, CalOZ, RevOZ, SRB & Associates, the Urban Institute and Develop LLC hosted a webcast to explore how the 2020 election may impact the future of Opportunity Zone policy and the ecosystem overall.
CalOZ’s Kunal Merchant walked through the current political and policy environment around Opportunity Zones, including four potential political scenarios for 2021 and their resulting impact on OZ policy. The panelists dove into ongoing conversations about the efficacy of the OZ incentive, how various political interests may want to amend OZ policies, and how investors, communities, policymakers, and researchers can engage in the dialogue and shape the future of OZs.
