Dear Richard Outzen,
In response to your Public Records request for the MOU between ST Aerospace Mobile, Inc. and the City of Pensacola, this document is exempt from FS 119 in accordance with FS 288.075(2)(a)1. If a private corporation, partnership, or person requests in writing before an economic incentive agreement is signed that an economic development agency maintain the confidentiality of information concerning plans, intentions, or interests of such private corporation, partnership, or person to locate, relocate, or expand any of its business activities in this state, the information is confidential and exempt from s. 119.07(1) and s. 24(a), Art. I of the State Constitution for 12 months after the date an economic development agency receives a request for confidentiality or until the information is otherwise disclosed, whichever occurs first.
I have attached a PDF copy of the confidentiality agreement for your review. Until the City of Pensacola is released from this confidentiality agreement, this Public Records request must be considered non-responsive and will be closed. Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or need any additional information.
