Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of September 4, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Antelope Data Center (Project Antelope) in Cedar City, Iron County, Utah 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.

Power and water

On-site natural gas-fired power plant planned to serve the campus.

"data center would use what is called a closed-loop cooling system, which is designed to circulate and reuse water."

Notes on the record

West of Cedar City along Antelope Springs Road; permit deemed vested ahead of the county's 180-day data center moratorium; development planned in phases over 8-10 years; up to 6.75M sq ft at full buildout. Subsidies checked at the municipal tier (2026-09-04): no site-level subsidy. Iron County Planning Commission minutes for the 4 June 2026 conditional-use approval state "This CUP is not tied to any tax incentives or reimbursements", and no Iron County community-reinvestment project area was found covering this site, which lies in unincorporated Iron County outside Cedar City's municipal limits. The applicant's consultant told the commission their tax-revenue estimate was modelled both "with the Inland Port incentives and without", which is a future incentive being contemplated by the developer, not an awarded one.

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
  • How the community has received it
  • 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.
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.
