In a move to bolster job growth and investment, the Victorville City Council has approved an investor visa program that will make 3,000 EB-5 visas available to qualified foreign investors. Funds from the investments will initially be used for a series of projects at Southern California Logistics Airport, according to a news release.
The program, which will report directly to U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services, will create private and limited partnerships to complete a series of projects at the airport, including a wastewater-treatment facility, electrical generation, intermodal rail improvements and various infrastructure improvements, according to the release.
