The company has not responded to questions about its plans for the property, including whether it will rehabilitate the aged, vacant property at 1507 Industrial Blvd. for a maintenance, repair and overhaul facility. <\/p>\n
That possibility is a question because the city confirmed it has been contacted about the site. <\/p>\n
Monica Landeros, public communications officer for Mayor Alvin Brown, said Thursday a consultant inquired about the property with the city Office of Economic Development. <\/p>\n
Landeros said the consultant made the inquiry Aug. 20, but said the city could not comment further because of a confidentiality agreement. A city website indicates the property is within an Enterprise Zone, which means it qualifies for state tax credits for creating jobs and capital investment. <\/p>\n
Jax Industrial Developments LLC, headed by Regent Aerospace President Reza Soltanianzadeh, paid $1.27 million for the property, which is zoned for light industrial use. <\/p>\n
The sale was recorded Thursday with the Duval County Clerk of Court. <\/p>\n
Regent Aerospace provided a $1.25 million mortgage and security agreement to Jax Industrial Developments LLC. <\/p>\n
Soltanianzadeh did not return a call or two emails for information about the plans. <\/p>\n
