Impact analysis
The county is keeping $500 million in potential tax revenue on the table instead of handing it over to a private corporation.
Local taxpayers win because that money stays in the county budget for public services instead of subsidizing a big tech project.
The tech company looking to build the data center loses out on a major discount, which might make them look elsewhere.
