The Clinton County Commission voted 3-0 to deny a proposal to rezone 715 acres of agricultural land for a data center project near Frankfort. The decision followed a public meeting where most comments were negative.

The Area Plan Commission had previously recommended the rezoning. Commissioners cited concerns for property owners and community sentiment as reasons for the rejection. Future economic development opportunities remain open, but the commission emphasized the need for trustworthy partnerships. The application is now closed, with a similar request barred for 12 months.
