Cleveland data center trying to get approved by city before moratorium takes effect

A significant $1.6 billion data center project, slated for Cleveland's Slavic Village, is currently attempting to secure city approval. The proposed facility would be a 150-megawatt development. Sources familiar with the project indicate that the developer is under pressure to gain approval before the Cleveland City Council votes on and potentially enacts a moratorium on new data center construction within the city. The project's proponents are engaged in a race against time to proceed with their plans.
