Home Depot now within Lakewood's UEZ

A section of Lakewood is designated as an Urban Enterprise Zone (UEZ) which enables businesses located within the zone to charge a sales tax of 3 and a half percent instead of the standard 7% rate. Obviously this makes businesses in the zone more competitive. The Lakewood zone was recently modified to now include the Town and Country Shopping Plaza. Within this complex is located the Home Depot.
