The Yorkville City Council is set to vote on agreements concerning two data center projects, Cardinal and Steel, which could yield $91 million for the city and local organizations. Yorkville Community Unit School District 115 would receive the largest share, totaling $68 million, as part of a facilities plan.
Project Cardinal is responsible for $51 million of this, while Project Steel is committing $40 million. In return, the district will abate some property taxes for the data centers. Project Cardinal has already received initial city council approval, while Tuesday's meeting will be a formal vote for Project Steel.
