What’s in it
AI summary Iowa is setting aside part of a larger fund to help pay for the costs of certifying specific business sites. This money will be used in counties with fewer than 50,000 people and must include at least two sites in each of Iowa's four congressional districts. The program helps the state's economic development authority manage these certified locations.1
Read the official explanation
In 2023, the general assembly appropriated $11.7 million to the economic development authority (IEDA) from the Iowa skilled worker and job creation fund for FY 2023-2024 for purposes of providing assistance for the high quality jobs program. Pursuant to the appropriation, those moneys are also authorized for use in FY 2024-2025. This bill allocates a portion of that appropriation for use by IEDA for certification costs associated with IEDA’s certified site program. Moneys so allocated must be used to certify sites in counties with a population of less than 50,000 (88 counties) and to certify at least two sites in each of Iowa’s four U.S. congressional districts. The bill takes effect upon enactment.
