Scope
Arizona HB 2738 (2026, as introduced), reference title "cost responsibility agreements; data centers", would have amended A.R.S. 41-1519 so that an owner or operator seeking computer data center tax relief certification must also submit a cost responsibility agreement with the electric utility serving the center requiring the owner or operator to pay all costs associated with dedicated upgrades required to serve it. It was not enacted before the Legislature adjourned sine die on 13 June 2026.

Summary
Arizona HB 2738 would have conditioned computer data center tax relief on an agreement that the data center pays for dedicated utility upgrades. It is not among the 2026 session laws or the Governor's letters, and the Legislature adjourned sine die on 13 June 2026, so it did not pass.
What this does not establish
- The official bill-status API (apps.azleg.gov) is disallowed by robots.txt, so committee history was not opened.
- Failure is inferred from the official record: the bill is absent from the 2026 session-law (chaptered bill) list and from the Governor's letters list (both fetched 23 September 2026), and the Legislature adjourned sine die on 13 June 2026.
- Only the introduced text was opened; later amendments, if any, were not reviewed.
Unresolved questions
None recorded.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
- No related action is recorded.
