DATA AND AI INFRASTRUCTURE
Guadalupe County Commissioners voted 3-2 against a tax abatement for CloudBurst's proposed $10 billion data center project. The project aimed to create 480 permanent jobs and included plans for 10-12 AI-Ready buildings.
Residents expressed concerns over water usage and environmental impacts. While the commission declined the tax break, they left open the possibility for CloudBurst to reconsider their proposal in the future.
