I don't know the technicalities of the wage requirement. A bit involved for me.
It has to do with a 5 million dollar economic subsidy, and I guess there was a salary requirement attached.
I can't get the Miami Herald article to link.
Amazon will be leasing the building and there's a 5 mill subsidy thrown in there somewhere.
Opa Locka definitely needs an upgrade; it remains to be seen if they're getting the shaft.
