Pinellas finds $2-million to lure defense company
Pinellas County leaders pledged $2-million Tuesday to entice a prosperous Massachusetts company to the Tampa Bay area even as they expect a tax revenue crunch to force them to lay off workers.
The money, from property taxes, is part of a larger $30-million incentive package for Charles Stark Draper Laboratory, a nonprofit that works in defense and biotechnology. The state and local governments on both sides of the bay are waving dollars.
