Gulf Breeze vies for aviation company

GULF BREEZE, Fla. - Gulf Breeze is competing with Georgia to bring in a new avionics manufacturer that may mean 37 or more jobs. The Santa Rosa County Commission voted Thursday to designate “Project Broken Arrow” as a “Qualified Target Industry” to receive state tax discounts. The project would be a headquarters and manufacturing facility. The company manufactures and designs aviation-related components, said Shannon Ogletree, industry recruiter for TEAM Santa Rosa.
