The record, newest first

  1. Cole County Circuit Judge Cotton Walker heard the motion to dismiss filed by the county and the Missouri Department of Economic Development, whose lawyers argued the claims lacked factual support, and took it under advisement. (Columbia Missourian (via Griffon News), Aug. 27, 2026)

  2. Amazon announced the $10 billion campus, with about 400 direct jobs and more than $7 million in local commitments. (Missouri Partnership, June 15, 2026; DCD, June 16, 2026; Missourinet, June 15, 2026)

  3. Spectrum reported Amazon owns about 900 acres north of I-70 and could start construction in 2027. (Spectrum News St. Louis, June 12, 2026)

  4. Preserve Montgomery County LLC filed suit against the county commission in Cole County Circuit Court, alleging Sunshine Law notice and closed-session violations and asking the court to void the commission's decisions; the county was unavailable for comment. (KOMU 8, Feb. 17, 2026)

  5. The county executed a development agreement with NorthPoint Development, according to the lawsuit filed later that month. (KOMU 8, Feb. 17, 2026)

  6. DCD reported a filing through NorthPoint Development under the name Project Green: about 1,000 acres, eight data center buildings in phase one and up to 13 more in phase two. (DCD, Jan. 15, 2026)

  7. The county commission voted on the project framework and cost-benefit analysis; KOMU noted the vote did not by itself authorize construction. (KOMU 8, 2026)

Conflicts and open questions

  • KOMU's lawsuit article dates the framework vote Jan. 18, 2026 (a Sunday); KOMU's timeline gives Dec. 18, 2025, which is used here.
  • Lawsuit filing date: KOMU's Feb. 17, 2026 story says the suit was filed Monday (Feb. 16).
  • Acreage: about 1,000 acres in filings (DCD, KOMU); Spectrum reported Amazon owns about 900 acres.
  • The Aug. 27 report mentioned a further hearing on Sept. 4; its outcome, and any ruling on the motion to dismiss, was not found in opened sources.
  • Allegations in the suit are the plaintiff's claims and have not been decided by the court.
