Report Violation

Are you sure you want to report the following content as a violation?

Looks like eight areas of California will become Enterprise Zones. In plainspeak, Gov. Arnold Schwarzenegger is interested in "revitalizing economically challenged parts of our state." Businesses in the eight areas, if approved, would get various goodies in the form of tax credits for each employee hired, preference points on state contracts and other bennies. There's a report on what good these zones do for local economies. So who's included? Well, not Kern. Here's the list: Siskiyou County, San Joaquin County, East Los Angeles, Salinas Valley, Kings County, Oakland, West Sacramento and Santa Ana. But makes you think Kern might need a boost too.

Please check the following violations, and include anything else in the comment box.
