The record, newest first

  1. The judge extended the restraining order first granted Sept. 8 and urged caution on construction while a preliminary injunction is decided; no date for that decision was reported. (KY3, Sept. 21, 2026)

  2. At a hearing on the developer's request for a restraining order, its attorney said the developer chose the county because it has no planning and zoning; the county argued the moratorium applies because construction had not begun. No ruling was issued that day. (KY3, Sept. 2, 2026)

  3. Benton County commissioners signed a six-month data center moratorium. (KY3, Sept. 2, 2026)

Conflicts and open questions

  • Under 50 MW and under 100 acres (no MW reported; two buildings of about 20,000 sq ft each on about 12 acres). Kept because it is contested; may fall below the tracker's scope floor.
  • sqft is the sum of two ~20,000 sq ft buildings as reported.
  • KY3 (Sept. 21) also reports NSI suing Springfield over its moratorium, arguing it does not apply to a property at 2900 S. National Ave.; not tracked as a separate project.
  • The developer's principal, a private individual, is not named.
