Intersect Illinois
About Our Vetted Sites
Vetted Sites are large sites (more than 400 acres with qualifying assets) and megasites (more than 1,000 acres) that are evaluated by Intersect Illinois based on attributes such as utilities, workforce, ownership, environmental and topographic data, logistics and distribution capabilities, local and state incentives, permitting and entitlement, and more.
The Vetted Sites program provides site and infrastructure data for fast-moving projects, while also helping properties and communities understand opportunities for improvement that would prepare them for additional growth. The program provides ample site data, so companies can make location decisions as quickly and accurately as possible.
