Madison County board bars data centers from receiving Illinois tax incentives

“There’s no need to incentivize a data center. They’re (developers) eager to build them.” Madison County, Illinois, has barred data center developers from seeking tax incentives through the state's enterprise zone program, which aims to stimulate economic growth in struggling parts of the state. The county board voted to exclude data centers from the Southwestern Madison County Enterprise zone and plans to pursue similar restrictions in nearby zones.
