Description
Description | A family in northern Kentucky was offered $26 million for part of their land to build an AI data center. The landowners, Ida Huddleston and her relatives, own about 1,200 acres near Maysville. The offer was for around half of their land, but they chose to keep it as it has been farmed for generations and continues to support food production. The proposed data center project in the area could cover around 2,000 acres and requires significant resources such as electricity and water for cooling. Local officials support such projects for tax revenue and jobs, but the family prioritized preserving their farmland. |
