Notes on the record

1115 Industrial Ave SW, Massillon, Stark County (an alternate address, 2527-2799 9th St SW, appears in one aggregator listing and may reflect the same multi-street parcel, not independently reconciled). 24-26 buildings (~40x110 ft each), 21,000+ ASIC mining machines, ~$22/hr starting wage, ~$82,000 average salary, no property tax abatement received. Explicitly distinct from Bitdeer's Whitetail Creek facility (1047 Belmont Ave, Niles/Weathersfield Township, Trumbull County, different city, county, and address, ~40 miles away) and from Bitdeer Clarington, Bitdeer's own coverage treats Massillon, Niles, and Clarington as three separate Ohio sites. Pure Bitcoin/ASIC mining with no AI/HPC framing in any source found (unlike Clarington and the proposed Shalersville site), no aiClassification set. Coordinates are an approximate geocode; exact address should be reconciled against Stark County GIS/auditor parcel records in a future pass.

What the record does not establish, and the document that would

In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.

  • Cooling method and water use
  • Tax abatements or other public subsidy
  • Which utility serves it
Which document closes each gap
Cooling method and water use
The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
Tax abatements or other public subsidy
The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
Which utility serves it
The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.

Distances are between recorded coordinates, many of which are a city or county centroid, so treat them as approximate. Cumulative load on one utility and one aquifer is the question a planning commission rarely asks.
