An aircraft maintenance company is opening a new location near Orlando-Sanford International Airport, with plans to employ up to 75 people in the next few years.
Constant Aviation LLC is seeking incentives from Florida, Sanford and Seminole County totaling $375,000, or $5,000 per job created. The money will only be awarded if the company provides proof it created the jobs, under the state’s Qualified Target Income program
Sanford and Seminole County are each kicking in $37,500. The company has pledged to invest $1.9 million in new facilities and equipment, and average salary of $50,109.
Enterprise Florida, the embattled state agency that coordinates state incentive dollars, considers the company to fit its model for target incomes, because the average salary is higher than Seminole’s average -- $43,573.
The Seminole Board of County Commissioners is set to vote on the incentives for Constant at its regular meeting, at 9:30 a.m. Feb. 28.
Constant Aviation says it has locations at Cleveland Hopkins International Airport, Cuyahoga County Airport, Birmingham International Airport and Las Vegas International Airport.
It specializes in airframe maintenance, engine repair maintenance, major repairs, avionics, interior refurbishment, parts distribution, accessory and composite services.
