The second iteration of the opportunity zone program, which offers tax breaks for developments in certain census tracts, will be set in stone by the end of the year.Governors are now preparing to submit their proposed maps for which cities, towns and neighborhoods will benefit from the program to the Treasury Department by a Sept. 28 deadline, giving the agency time to review the nominations before the new iteration of the program takes effect in January.To inform their nominations, many states began soliciting proposals from the public before the window opened July 1. More than half have already completed that process.
