Scope
The Wyoming Business Council page "Managed Data Center Cost Reduction Funding" states that the Business Ready Community (BRC) grant and loan program currently provides a data center cost reduction grant to local governments working with a data center business, used to buy down the cost of broadband and electricity. Grant amounts are based on the business's capital investment and payroll over five years; the business must create a match of at least 125 percent of the grant in payroll and capital expenditure (half in payroll), with payroll above 150 percent of the county median wage, and must agree to repay if requirements are not met or it leaves within five years. A managed data center is a center whose primary purpose is the centralized repository for storage, management and dissemination of data for multiple businesses.

Summary
The Wyoming Business Council describes a Business Ready Community grant that local governments can use to buy down broadband and electricity costs for a managed data center business, sized by the business's five-year capital investment and payroll and conditioned on a 125 percent match, above-median wages and repayment if the business fails to perform or leaves within five years. The page is the Council's program description; the governing BRC rules were not opened.
What this does not establish
- The source is the Council's program web page; the BRC program rules it refers to ("For the purposes of these rules") were not opened, because the Secretary of State rules search returned no server-rendered results.
- No grant awards were counted and no statute naming the grant was found in the Title 9 material reviewed.
- The page is undated; no adoption or effective date is stored.
Unresolved questions
- Which chapter of the Business Council's BRC rules defines the data center cost reduction grant, and when it took effect.
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.
