What the source record says
Status re-checked 2026-09-09: no change, stays proposed. Hamilton County commissioners approved a 35-year lease at $375,000/yr in March 2026, but a lease approval is not a construction permit and the commission capped data storage at 12,000 sq ft of the 142,000 sq ft building. investmentUsd deliberately left unset: the only published figure is a range ($80-100M renovation estimate), which is not a single reportable value.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
