Nothing on record as of October 30, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Boomtown Lawton Data Center, cancelled in Lawton, Comanche County, Oklahoma appears in the sources this registry tracks.

Notes on the record

Oklahoma Watch (December 9, 2025) reports that Boomtown Manufacturing LLC won an auction in April 2025 for a long-term lease on a 388-acre parcel of state school land on the east side of Lawton, that the Commissioners of the Land Office tabled the final agreement at summer meetings, that Boomtown told Land Office staff in November it wanted to cancel, and that commissioners voted 5-0 on December 3, 2025 to accept the cancellation. Company representatives told commissioners the initial plan was a 100-megawatt data center, with possible expansions to 500 megawatts; the 500 MW figure is not recorded as capacity. Boomtown also said in May 2025 that it had an option to build on private land; no site there is recorded.
