Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of July 18, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over CyrusOne New Albany COL-1 in Johnstown, Licking County, Ohio appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.

If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.

Notes on the record

12181 Jug St, Johnstown, in the Licking County section of the New Albany International Business Park. 274,518 sq ft, two-story building. Ohio Tax Credit Authority approved a 10-year, 75% data center sales tax exemption valued at $5.4M (approved ~April 2024). No IT-load MW figure is publicly disclosed for this site, an earlier 60MW figure found in some secondary sources actually belongs to a different operator's nearby New Albany campus (STACK Infrastructure NAL01) and is not attributable to CyrusOne COL-1; capacityMw is omitted rather than guessed. No AI/HPC-specific marketing found, treated as generic hyperscale colo.

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.

  • Power capacity in megawatts
  • Cooling method and water use
  • Tax abatements or other public subsidy
  • Permanent jobs promised
  • How the community has received it
  • Which utility serves it
Which document closes each gap
Power capacity in megawatts
The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
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.
Permanent jobs promised
The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
How the community has received it
Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
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.
