A Norton Shores jet engine maker says it will push forward on a $10 million expansion plan and the creation of new jobs if the state approves requested tax incentives.
According to excerpts from the story:

The jet-engine parts maker is looking to acquire the rights to manufacture a line of parts currently produced out of state. A proposed 100-percent tax break from Norton Shores and a state tax credit are considered pivotal to Johnson Technology’s bid for the parts package that potentially could create 51 jobs in the coming years at the Norton Shores site, 6060 Norton Center.
The proposed project marks the second major announcement by Johnson Technology in four months.
