Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of October 13, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over DataBank Brooklyn Park Campus in Brooklyn Park, Hennepin County, Minnesota 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.

A new status, a permit, a reception finding, or a lawsuit. Nothing else, ever.

Notes on the record

8111 Oxbow Creek N, Brooklyn Park, MN 55445. Anchored by DataBank's 'MSP3' data hall. Some third-party aggregators (datacentermap.com, datacenterjournal.com) attribute a DataBank facility at '10300 6th Ave N' to 'Plymouth', that appears to be an older/alternate address or aggregator error for the same Brooklyn Park campus (DataBank's own current site only lists the Oxbow Creek N address for its Minneapolis-market campus); the address used is the one on DataBank's own official page. Coordinates approximate (Brooklyn Park city-area estimate, not parcel-geocoded).

Permanent jobs promised
The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.

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.
