The record, newest first
After a 7-2 planning commission recommendation, the council's rezoning vote failed 3-3. (Columbia Missourian (via KBIA), Nov. 19, 2025)
The owner asked to rezone the land to industrial, saying a data center may be pursued there; a city agenda report backed the request. (KBIA, Oct. 8, 2025)
Conflicts and open questions
- Below scope thresholds (63 acres, no MW); kept because it is a denied, contested request that preceded Columbia's 2026 data center rules.
- No developer company named; the owner is a private individual.
