The city of Columbus is going to try to increase development in six areas of the community.

Those six are on track to be named economic revitalization areas. Robin Hilber, with the city’s office of community development, said that the areas to be targeted are:

• Woodside Northwest
• Progress Park
• Columbus Municipal Airport
• State Street Industrial Corridor,
• Indianapolis Road Industrial Corridor
• Downtown Columbus

Declaring Economic Revitalization Areas make it possible for businesses to apply for tax credits and abatements. City Council approved a resolution last night naming those locations as ERAs.
