Revenue and Economics

Project Taurus job claims, city fee determination, unresolved utility costs, and unresolved subsidy questions.

Current as of June 16, 2026 Evidence dashboard

Economic ledger

Separate jobs, fees, incentives, and utility costs

The record supports a CDI fee determination and applicant job claims. It does not yet support a broad subsidy finding or final ratepayer-cost conclusion.

Jobs

Applicant-attributed employment

Raeden says the project will employ 60-100 permanent staff and have 80-130 onsite personnel. That is not a binding job commitment without later records.

Fees

CDI fee determination

The city approval letter says no Citywide Development Impact Police/Fire fees are required for this modification. That is a fee determination, not a full subsidy finding.

Utility costs

Ratepayer question unresolved

Public CSU materials describe large-load cost-recovery guardrails, but the project-specific service agreement, collateral, studies, and extension-cost records are still needed.

Development agreement Binding economics

Executed development agreement or incentive agreement would settle whether job or performance terms are binding.

Public finance Subsidy search

Tax rebate, abatement, utility incentive, grant, or economic-development agreement records would settle broader subsidy claims.

CSU Utility cost allocation

Large Load Service Agreement, study invoices, collateral, and line/substation cost records would settle ratepayer-cost claims.

Employment records Job claims

Payroll reports, compliance records, or performance terms would verify applicant job claims.
