What the reviewed record shows
The approved agreements provide a 10-year, 100% real-property abatement for each eligible building and a separate 35-year, 100% exemption for qualified enterprise IT equipment in each eligible building. That local Hobart IT exemption is distinct from Indiana’s separate state data-center sales and use tax exemption program. The community agreement also schedules $175 million in contributions and separate per-building impact payments. Some scheduled contributions may be reduced by annual impact payments, and the schedule alone does not prove every payment has already been received.
