Gov: Palm Beach County zoning staff, Palm Beach County Board of County Commissioners

WPTV has been  following Project Tango, the hyperscale AI data center proposal, since last December, and I got my hands on new documents showing a major change after commissioners rejected the expansion in July.

County zoning staff have now approved nearly 700,000 square feet of data center space on part of the property, nearly triple what was approved in 2016. This came without a vote by commissioners or the public… I break down how that happened and the separate proposal that’s still under review.
