The record, newest first

  1. Google confirmed it is the company behind Project Mica, said it will pay the full energy costs under an Evergy agreement, and said it will qualify for Evergy's large-load tariff. (KCTV5, Feb. 12, 2026; Axios Kansas City, Feb. 12, 2026; DCD, Feb. 2026)

  2. The Port KC Board of Commissioners voted 6-0 to authorize up to $10 billion in taxable revenue bonds for Project Mica. (Port KC, July 28, 2025; KCTV5, July 29, 2025)

  3. Port KC's development committee took up a resolution authorizing bonds for Project Mica and recommended up to $10 billion with a 25-year, 75% property tax abatement. (Port KC, April 14, 2025; DCD, April 15, 2025; Ingram's, April 15, 2025)

  4. County records showed a Google affiliate, AG Rose Solutions LLC, bought about 493 acres from Diode Ventures in December 2023; QTS had earlier let its contract on the land lapse over power availability. (DCD, Jan. 10, 2024)

Conflicts and open questions

  • The lead grouped Meta Kansas City buildings 4 and 5 and a 'Meta Kansas City expansion' with this campus; those belong to Meta's separate Golden Plains campus southwest of US 169 and NW 128th St.
  • KCTV5 placed the site 'in Smithville'; the reported address is a Kansas City (Northland) address on N. Arrowhead Trafficway; Smithville School District receives workforce funds.
  • Coordinates are approximate, placed northeast of the I-435/US 169 interchange near the reported address.
  • DCD's Feb. 2026 article calls this Google's second Kansas City campus; the first is at Hunt Midwest Business Center (separate record).
