DIXON – The City Council has done its part to entice a manufacturer that could bring 100 jobs and $35 million to $45 million of investment to nearby Rochelle.

The City Council Monday approved extending the Lee County Enterprise Zone to property on ProLogis Park near the Lee and Ogle counties border.

An enterprise zone is a statewide economic development tool utilized by select communities to convince new or old business to expand there by cutting a portion or all of their property taxes, sales taxes on building materials or utility costs.
