Google Project Spring AI Data Center

planned

Google plans to build its newest AI data center on 827 acres of farmland just outside Sand Springs, a Tulsa suburb in Oklahoma. The project, known as Project Spring, involves rezoning agricultural land to industrial use and is expected to bring jobs and tax revenue to the area. The data center buildings would occupy less than 10% of the land and provide tax revenue to support municipal budgets without straining the electrical grid or water supply. The project has faced significant local opposition, including recall efforts against city council members who supported it and lawsuits challenging land annexation and zoning changes.
