Homeowners would receive property tax relief funded by the data centers paying full property taxes without abatements.
Data centers would be required to comply with all air and water quality regulations while minimizing impacts on Ohio farmland.
According to the proposal, no new data center would be allowed to move forward unless all three requirements are met.
Free Electricity Through Excess PowerThe centerpiece of the plan focuses on using excess electricity generated by power plants built alongside data centers.
Property Tax ChangesThe proposal also calls for ending future property tax abatements for data centers.
