  3. A Lincoln business group asked city leaders to keep the Google campus from raising other customers' power rates; an LES planner said the utility's build-out would serve Google without unduly burdening existing customers. (KOLN 10/11 NOW, Sept. 26, 2024)

  4. Google publicly confirmed the Lincoln project, described as a $600 million data center, with the mayor welcoming it. (KOLN 10/11 NOW, Sept. 26, 2024)

  5. Agate LLC, a company with a Delaware address on its state filings, closed on about 600 acres northwest of the 56th Street exit for more than $18.6 million, AP reported. (KLKN-TV (Associated Press), Nov. 5, 2019)

  6. The Lincoln City Council gave final approval to annex about 576 acres and rezone them from agriculture to an employment-center district for a 2 million-square-foot data center whose owner was not named. (KLKN-TV, Sept. 9, 2019)

Conflicts and open questions

  • Acreage is given as about 576 acres (annexation), about 600 acres (land purchase) and roughly 580 acres (Google, 2024).
  • Nebraska Examiner's August 2023 report on Google's confirmation could not be opened; the announcement is sourced to later KOLN reporting.
