Want to land a CRIZ project? Officials offer advice



Bethlehem area development officials will be talking about Bethlehem’s City Revitalization and Improvement Zone at a sold-out event at 5:30 p.m. today at the Social Still Micro-Distillery & Kitchen in the city. Bethlehem and Lancaster are the only two cities in the state that offer the CRIZ, which gives tax incentives to developers and businesses.


Rob de Beer of BethWorks Renovations will be addressing the Young Professionals Council of the Greater Lehigh Valley Chamber of Commerce on projects that will be taking advantage of the South Side CRIZ.

Sean Boyle of Boyle Construction Management will be giving an update on the progress of the Hoover Mason Trestle, which will provide a walkway between the Sands Casino Resort and SteelStacks.

Also, local leaders will share detailed information on the CRIZ process and how to work with the new business initiative, which is aimed at putting vacant buildings back on the tax rolls and growing the local job base.
