What is current economic impact and expectations for
growth and decline?
How does Navy impact Economic Effectiveness of NE
Florida?
• Annual Defense Spending in region– ~$4.5B per year (Does not account for visitors, construction,
contracts, etc.)
• Military Construction possibilities/realities (>$1B):– CVN ~$500M
– LCS facilities
– BAMS
– Underwater Range
– Gymnasium
– Pier upgrades and repair
– Housing
• Ship Repair Decline likely
• Fleet Readiness Center (slight growth)
• Navy concern with Economic Livelihood of NE Florida?
Why is NE Florida attractive market for
Vets? What could be done to leverage
veteran workforce?
• Cost of Living
• Taxes
• Weather
• Support Structure (Medical, Exchange, Commissary)
• Friendliness of community towards military
• Large percentage of retired military are doing work supporting the military bases-----that needs to change
Is NE Florida maximizing its potential for
attracting military and defense contractors
in the area?
• Nearly all retirees to NE Florida are people who have had duty in the area– Speaks well of satisfaction with NE Florida
– Speaks poorly that we are not drawing in vets who are still in the workforce
• Defense Contractor presence is very small in relation to other defense hubs (Norfolk, Washington DC, San Diego, Los Angeles, Orlando, etc)– Orlando Defense contracts 2000-2009> $24B
– Unlimited opportunity to increase defense contractors in area
– Cecil Field is a good starting point
Summary
• Navy presence will continue to be strong in
NE Florida
• Expect continued budget pressures across
DoD for many years
• Navy looking at ways to reduce force
– 65% of budget goes to payroll of active duty and
retirees
– Perform to Serve (PTS)
– Chief Continuation Boards
– Captain and Commander Continuation Boards
