\begin{frame}{What we do in this study}
\begin{itemize}
\item Commissioned by a data center
\item Possible use cases
\begin{itemize}
\item argue for tax exemptions to business council
\item garner some public support
\item prepare county/town with some sense of expectations around employment effects, population effects, temporary housing needs, etc.
\end{itemize}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}[c]{Scenario}
\begin{itemize}
\item Lincoln County Wyoming
\item Construction from 2027 until 2030
\item Operates until 2060
\item \$2 Billion capital investment
\item Data center facility
\item Natural gas capacity
\item Battery system
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\begin{frame}{Modeling tax impacts of data centers}
\begin{itemize}
\item Tax PI at a state level
\item EAD data
\item connect line items to policy/model levers
\item incorporate tax exemptions to certain industries
\item consider industrial zone exemptions vs. data center exemptions
\item consider sales tax generated from out of state purchases
\item some screenshots
