Summary

Idaho House Bill 609 of 2026 proposed that the sales tax exemption for data center server equipment and facilities in Idaho Code section 63-3622VV apply only before 1 July 2036. The Legislature's bill page shows it was printed and referred to the House Revenue and Taxation Committee on 10 February 2026 and records no later action. It died when the 2026 session adjourned sine die on 2 April 2026 and did not change the existing exemption.

What this does not establish

  • The end date is the official 2026 sine die date; the bill page records no action after the 10 February committee referral.
  • The property tax provisions of the bill are not described in detail.
  • The existing exemption in section 63-3622VV was not changed by this bill.

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.
