Amazon Data Center Fuels Bossier Infrastructure Fund

Bossier City is betting big on Amazon’s $6 billion data center to fund future infrastructure, launching a new “infrastructure capital fund” that will use a portion of projected sales tax growth—thanks to the project’s one percent parish tax—to avoid new debt. With Amazon paying $22.4 million in sales tax already (from Meta’s nearby project), and an additional $12 million annually from water services, the city aims to build roads, water systems, and drainage without bonds, starting January 2027 and running until 2032.
