Development of data center in Faribault slowed by Minnesota Court of Appeals ruling

The Minnesota Court of Appeals has ruled against the city of Faribault and Archer Datacenters, slowing the development of a proposed 500,000 square foot data center. The court sided with the Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy, which argued that residents lacked sufficient information regarding environmental impacts. The ruling requires more definitive information for the city to make a final decision, delaying the project.

A Goodhue County District Court hearing is scheduled for June 18 to determine the next steps for Pine Island's proposed data center project, Project Skyway. The Minnesota Center for Environmental Advocacy (MCEA) has sued, arguing that the conducted environmental review (AUAR) is insufficient and a more stringent review is needed. The outcome will decide if developer Ryan Companies and the city can proceed with construction plans for the Google data center.
