What the source record says
This record covers the original 267-acre 'Project Lincoln' filing. Confirmed absence: no source fetched in this run documents the final disposition of the smaller, relocated ~100MW alternative proposal — a maintainer should re-check before treating the whole Western Hospitality Partners effort in Oldham County as fully closed.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
Status history supplied by the source
- 2025-03 · reported proposed
Project Lincoln: OC Data Center application announced 2025-03-28 for a 267.3-acre site at 3557 North Highway 53, La Grange; required a Conditional Use Permit as a Private Utility Building since data centers lacked a specific zoning classification in Oldham County. Technical Review Committee was scheduled for 2025-04-16, Board of Adjustments & Appeals hearing expected May 2025.
- 2025-07 · reported cancelled
Original 267-acre application withdrawn amid opposition; Oldham County Fiscal Court passed a 150-day data-center moratorium 4-2 on 2025-07-02 with no exemption carved out for the pending Western Hospitality application. Developer pursued a smaller, relocated ~100 MW proposal at a different site (the Sauerbeck family drive-in theater property) within the county; baxtel.com's tracking record for this original filing lists status as 'Project cancelled before construction.'
