Hamilton City Manager Announces Pause on Data Center Study at Developer's Request
Hamilton City Manager Craig Bucheit announced that the proposed data center project by Logistixs may face challenges following a recent impact study. Preliminary results indicate the project would require substantial time, funding, and infrastructure.
Logistixs requested a feasibility study to determine if 240 megawatts of power could be supplied to the site; however, it has been determined that delivering 45 megawatts would take at least 24 months. The developer has asked the city to pause additional studies while they evaluate the situation and decide on the project's future.
Bucheit noted that a decision on whether to proceed with further studies could be made by the end of the month. The data center proposal has raised concerns among residents regarding costs, health, and environmental impacts.
