Walton County Enterprise Zone

Walton County Enterprize Zones

An Enterprise Zone is a specific geographic area targeted for economic revitalization. Enterprise Zones encourage economic growth and investment in distressed areas by offering tax advantages and incentives to businesses locating within the zone boundaries. Although all Enterprise Zones have the same basic goals of economic revitalization and community redevelopment, they offer their own local incentives and they maintain their own agendas for the communities.

Rural Enterprise Zones are given different tax credits than Urban Enterprise Zones through various incentives. A county and its municipalities may be designated Rural Enterprise Zones if the county has a population of 75,000 or less.

Walton County has three Rural Enterprise Zones:
City of DeFuniak Springs (EZ 6601)
City of Freeport (EZ 6602)
Walton County (EZ 6603)

Florida Enterprise Zone

In addition to local incentives, the State of Florida offers seven incentives for Rural Enterprise Zones:

Jobs Tax Credit (Sales Tax): Allows a business located within a Rural Enterprise Zone to take a sales and use tax credit for 30 or 45 percent of wages paid to new employees who live within a Rural County. To be eligible, a business must create at least one new job. The Sales Tax Credit cannot be used in conjunction with the Corporate Tax Jobs Credit.

Jobs Tax Credit (Corporate Income Tax): Allows a business located within a Rural Enterprise Zone to take a corporate income tax credit for 30 or 45 percent of wages paid to new employees who reside within a Rural County. To be eligible, a business must create at least one new job. The Corporate Tax Credit cannot be used in conjunction with the Sales Tax Credit.

Business Equipment Sales Tax Refund: A refund is available for sales taxes paid on the purchase of certain business property, which is used exclusively in an Enterprise Zone for at least 3 years.

Building Materials Sales Tax Refund: A refund is available for sales taxes paid on the purchase of building materials used to rehabilitate real property located in an Enterprise Zone.

Property Tax Credit (Corporate Income Tax): New or expanded businesses located within an enterprise zone are allowed a credit against Florida corporate income tax equal to 96% of ad valorem taxes paid on the new or improved property.

Sales Tax Exemption for Electrical Energy: A 50% sales tax exemption is available to qualified businesses located within an Enterprise Zone on the purchase of electrical energy, if the municipality has reduced the municipal utility tax by at least 50%.

Community Contribution Tax Credit Program: Allows businesses a 50% credit on Florida corporate income tax, insurance premium tax, or sales tax refund for donations made to local community development projects. Businesses are not required to be located in an enterprise zone to be eligible for this credit.

Okaloosa Gas

Okaloosa Gas District was created by an act of the legislature in 1953 as an independent special district, with member cities of Crestview, Niceville, Valparaiso, and Fort Walton Beach.

The original system consisted of six and eight inch transmission lines from Cantonment to Crestview, then south to Fort Walton Beach with distribution systems for Crestview, Duke Field, Niceville, Valparaiso, Eglin AFB, Fort Walton Beach and Mary Esther. Service has since been extended to Destin, South Walton County, Hurlburt AFB, South Santa Rosa County, DeFuniak Springs, and Whiting Field.

Financing was accomplished through revenue bonds and, after some 15 months of construction, gas actually flowed into the system in June 1955. Since that time, the District has grown to about 35,000 customers. The transmission system consists of 2, 3, 4, 6, 8, 10 and 12 inch high pressure steel pipelines with a maximum allowable operating pressure of 550 pounds per square inch gauge. They have 1050 miles of distribution mains, with approximately 25 main stations and more than 600 regulator stations and approximately 41,500 service lines. At the present time, approximately 150 people are employed by the District; several of these have in excess of 30 years of service.

Community Coffee

Community Coffee Company is steeped in tradition as rich as its coffee. As the largest family-owned retail coffee brand in the U.S., the company grew from a small country store in Baton Rouge where, more than 88 years ago, founder Henry Norman "Cap" Saurage brewed his popular coffee.

The coffee became so popular that he named it "Community" in honor of his loyal friends and customers. Cap eventually turned his attention away from the grocery store and devoted all of his time and energy to making great coffee.

Today, Community Coffee Company is so much a part of people's lives and spans so many generations that it has been dubbed the State Coffee of Louisiana™.
