Our plan is to present a recommendation for designating Hillsborough County’s QOZ 2.0 census tracts to the state of Florida. Beginning July 1, 2026, governors will have 90 days to nominate up to 25 percent of eligible low-income census tracts as OZs. These designations will remain in place for 10 years and cannot be revised.
