To require the legislature to appropriate money to public schools from other revenue to compensate for the amount that tax breaks granted to “data centers” reduce current state school aid fund revenue. See also Senate Bills 616 and 617 (signed into law at the end of 2015), which began as tax breaks for a particular developer’s project in the vacant “Pyramid” building near Grand Rapids, but finished by authorizing sales and use tax breaks for all data center facilities (if approved by local governments where they are located).
Referred to the Committee on Tax Policy
