Notes on the record

630-acre proposed data campus near the Mathewson Substation, NW 248th Street, Piedmont (Canadian/Kingfisher county line), part of a transmission corridor drawing multiple competing proposals; see beltline-piedmont-kingfisher-county-ok (this same batch), a separate, distinct 321-acre Beltline Energy site nearby, do not conflate despite both being in Piedmont. Closed-loop cooling planned. Cloverleaf recently withdrew from two Wisconsin data center projects after local opposition (context, not this project). Reported as 'over $1 billion taxable investment' (DCD), read as a tax-abatement eligibility threshold rather than a confirmed capex figure, so not populated as investmentUsd.

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.

  • Tax abatements or other public subsidy
  • Permanent jobs promised
  • Which utility serves it
Which document closes each gap
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.
Permanent jobs promised
The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
Which utility serves it
The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.

Have one of these documents? Send it to us and we will add it to the record with attribution.

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.
