This bill, known as the Data Center Transparency Act, prohibits elected officials in Michigan from signing nondisclosure agreements that keep data center construction details secret. It specifically applies to contracts between local governments and data center owners where the facility is built in exchange for tax incentives. Under the law, any such agreement attempting to hide information about the project would be considered void and unenforceable, while still allowing the redaction of specific intellectual property details. The measure requires that all related bills be passed for this provision to take effect.
