The Marshfield Common Council voted to apply for Opportunity Zone 2.0 designation through Wisconsin's state process, targeting a district that follows the Central Avenue corridor from East Ives Street north to roughly East 14th Street. City Planner James Lieven said the designation would use federal capital-gains incentives to draw private redevelopment investment to the qualifying low-income corridor. The application feeds Wisconsin's statewide nomination ahead of the fall federal deadline.
