City of Brandon and West Rankin Utility Authority; authorize to enter agreements w/data center for water & wastewater infrastructure.

This bill authorizes the City of Brandon and the West Rankin Utility Authority to enter into agreements with developers or operators of data centers to build and maintain water and wastewater infrastructure needed for the facilities. Under the agreement, the data center companies would pay for the infrastructure costs from their own funds as construction progresses, allowing the city and authority to provide reclaimed water for cooling and handle wastewater treatment. The contracts can last up to 30 years with renewal options and may include provisions for assigning agreements to new owners, guaranteeing water and wastewater capacity, and setting rates for services.
