Summary

From 1 January 2013 Nebraska exempted from sales and use tax the property and services that a Nebraska data center operator acquired and incorporated into other property for later use outside the state. The exemption, codified as section 77-2704.62, was outright repealed by LB 901 (2026), section 43, operative 1 July 2026. It is historical and no longer in effect.

What this does not establish

  • The measure text is taken from the 2012 enacting act (LB 1080, section 5); the codified section page now shows only the repeal notice, so any amendment between 2012 and 2026 could not be read from a current official copy.
  • The mapping of LB 1080 section 5 to section 77-2704.62 rests on the official LB 901 Revenue Committee statement, which describes 77-2704.62 as the sales and use tax exemption for data centers.
  • The stored effective day is LB 1080's operative date (1 January 2013).
  • Claims or refunds for periods before the repeal were not examined.

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.
