Cloverleaf withdrew its application for an on-site power plant to look at other locations, while saying the data center rezoning application stays active; two days later the county commission removed project critic Mike Stieben as chair on a 3-2 vote

Notes: The county has posted draft planned unit development application DEV-26-113 (Western Meadowlark Technology Park) with traffic, sound, wetlands and geotechnical exhibits. More than 1,000 people turned out at a county meeting against the project. Cloverleaf says it will pay for the power and transmission upgrades the campus needs under the Kansas large load tariff.
