Mudd Show. That is Brian Mudd and Joel mallikin with
you and Governor DeSantis on hand at the Florida Pavilion
at the Paris Air Show to announce the relocation of
Auto Aviation's corporate headquarters to Florida, in addition to a
manufacturing facility that's to be built in Jacksonville. The deal

(00:37):
it'll result in four hundred and thirty million in new
investment by the company in Florida, with the addition of
three hundred and eighty nine jobs. The Florida Legislature passed
a budget for the twenty five to twenty six fiscal year,
which begins July first, ending a forty five day delay
in delivering the budget to Governor DeSantis for his consideration.

(00:57):
In the end, the vote nearly unanimous House and send it.
Only two Democrats voted against it. The overall budget at
one hundred and fifteen point one billion dollars lower than
the current fiscal year budget by about three billion. That
is roughly in line with what Governor Descantis proposed. However,
a lot of the details not exactly what he wanted.
It includes many sales tax holidays included in the budget,

(01:20):
back to school sales tax holidays, which would be made permanent,
along with ending the state's two percent business rent tax. However,
the budget does not call for property tax relief, a
priority of De santisis, or a sales tax rate cut,
a priority of the state House. The Bombach count of

the Atlantic, not making its way to really across South

which is good all the way around. I mean, it's
when we have it in the Atlantic, yay, because you know,
that keeps things from developing out in the Atlantic. But
when you get it into the golf, that also helps
keep stuff from developing in the golf too, So that's
a win all the way around. And on that note,
National Hurricane Center's tropical outlook clear for the next seven days.
