Last update: 2 hours ago

Cybersecurity Growth: Ridge IT Cyber, based in the Tampa Bay area, landed on the Inc. 5000 for a fourth straight year, citing 181% three-year revenue growth and plans to add about 20 local jobs in 2026. Local Land-Use Fight: A Crestview council is weighing an ordinance that would block new data center development, citing land, water, and sewer pressure as the city plans around a major bypass corridor. Small-Business Tech: A Florida-focused opinion piece says AI is already helping small businesses handle routine tasks and customer responses, but stresses training and safe use. Fraud Case: A former Sweetwater commissioner was sentenced to 18 months in federal prison for nearly $950K in PPP fraud using falsified payroll and tax documents. Tax Prep Help: A bookkeeping story argues year-round bookkeeping can help local owners avoid last-minute tax-season misses on deductions. Restaurant Expansion: Jimmy John’s and Buffalo Wild Wings are opening Florida’s first co-branded location in Palmetto, aiming to serve game-day crowds under one roof. Policy Watch: Florida’s Amendment 3 debate continues, with critics warning it could open the door to a state income tax and pointing to unclear fiscal impacts.
