Amazon’s planned $11 billion data center west of South Bend would create at least 400 jobs that pay an average $30 an hour. In return for property tax breaks, Amazon also pledges money for a host of community needs.
Over the roughly 900-acre site, the company plans to build up to 22 buildings, called shells, each estimated at 216,000 square feet. To generate money for fire service, “student success,” and parks and green space, Amazon would pay the county one-time fees, equal to 10 cents per square foot, each time they finish a building.
