St. Louis postpones hearing on Midtown data center appeals
St. Louis officials have postponed a meeting scheduled to review at least 13 appeals filed against the city's approval of a $1.5 billion Midtown data center project. The project, involving a 120-megawatt data center, had previously received approval from the St. Louis Board of Aldermen.
St. Louis officials have announced the postponement of a crucial meeting originally set for this week to address appeals against the city's approval of a $1.5 billion Midtown data center. At least 13 appeals have been lodged, seeking to reverse the St. Louis Board of Aldermen's decision to approve the 120-megawatt data center project, which is planned for the former Famous Barr warehouse building near the Armory.
The data center's proximity to an Ameren Missouri electric substation, located adjacent to the site, has been noted. The city is expected to reschedule the hearing to review these challenges to the project's development.
