Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of August 2, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Metrobloks MIA-A1 (MB01) in Miami, Miami-Dade County, Florida 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

500 NW 137th Avenue, Miami-Dade County (Airport West submarket, near Miami International Airport). Land acquisition closed March 31, 2025; targeting operations by end of 2026, but no permit or construction-start source located -- recorded proposed, not under_construction. Capacity is disputed between the operator's own two pages: 15.2 MW at the press-release/land-acquisition stage (independently corroborated by Cushman & Wakefield) vs. 16.8 MW critical IT on the current site page, which separately claims ~40,500 sq ft of total whitespace across two 15,200 sq ft halls (an internal arithmetic inconsistency on the operator's own page). Recorded the better-corroborated 15.2 MW figure. The operator's site page states ~21ms round-trip latency to the NAP of the Americas and Uptime Tier III design intent with liquid cooling to 150kW/rack; no confirmed total-building square footage, investment figure, or jobs figure located -- omitted per project convention rather than using unconfirmed numbers. No opposition/permit coverage found this session; Airport West is a commercial/industrial submarket. Coordinates are an approximate Airport West-area estimate, not a parcel-confirmed geocode of the street address.

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
  • Permanent jobs promised
  • How the community has received it
  • 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.
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.
