The City of Alliance is among the 28 census tracts Governor Jim Pillen nominated statewide for Qualified Opportunity Zone designation — a selection local officials say could open the door to private investment in housing, industrial development, retail, medical facilities, and redevelopment if Treasury grants final approval. Alliance joins Scottsbluff, Lexington, and Omaha's ten tracts on Nebraska's slate, one of the first fully public state lists of the OZ 2.0 cycle; the nominations now await federal certification ahead of the January 1, 2027 effective date.
