QTS and Lancium Agreement to Fund Infrastructure Improvements in Turkey Through 2032
QTS and Lancium agreed to provide up to $15.5 million to Turkey, Texas, for infrastructure improvements associated with a planned data center development in Hall County. The funding includes payments through 2032, additional support for roads and utilities, and a contribution toward replacing the city’s aging water tower and improving its sewer system.
QTS and Lancium have reached an agreement that could provide the city of Turkey with up to $15.5 million as their data center development in Hall County moves forward. The package includes $10.5 million in payments through 2032 and up to $5 million for roads, utilities, drainage and other infrastructure projects.
The companies also plan a one-time contribution to replace Turkey’s aging water tower and improve its sewer system. City Manager Lynette Findley said the city’s infrastructure is already strained by population growth and limited capacity. Ryan Kuithe, a senior vice president of operations, said the agreement is intended to build community trust and is part of the companies’ broader commitment to invest $250 million in Texas water infrastructure over the next decade. No specific timeline has been announced for the upgrades, although work has begun on the data center development in Hall County.
