Source-reported capacity; not metered consumption. Review underlying documents and notes. Planned capacity may include future phases and is not added to operational capacity here. The source may use facility, grid-feed or IT capacity definitions; consult the linked documents.
Coordinate precision is a source label, not an independent parcel survey. A marker does not confirm utility territory or establish an effect on residential bills.
Reported lifecycle history
- Proposed
Hancock County Planning & Zoning Commission voted unanimously to deny a rezoning request for the approximately 724-acre site in Concord Township near Garner; a company representative said MCNI would likely appeal to the county Board of Adjustment.
Underlying source - Cancelled
The application to rezone 724 acres in Concord Township for a possible data center was withdrawn. The withdrawal was announced at the Hancock County Board of Supervisors meeting, citing a letter from the landowner.
Underlying source
Source notes
The cited source states no full legal operator name, project name, capacity, or investment figure. MCNI is described only as 'a limited liability corporation.' This is a Planning & Zoning Commission-level denial recommendation, not yet a final county board action, and the company signaled an appeal to the county Board of Adjustment. The status is kept as proposed rather than cancelled pending that outcome, with the denial recorded in the status history and community response instead. Coordinates are an approximate geocode of Garner, the nearest named place in sourcing, not the parcel itself.
