Provider notes
Community. Cave City enacted a 12-month data-center zoning moratorium 2026-05-20. Developer Kentucky Industrial Alliance LLC sued the city 2026-06-08 in Barren District/Circuit Court, arguing its application should be reviewed under the zoning rules in place 2026-05-11 (before the moratorium) and separately challenging the city's annexation of the tract (alleging improper procedure involving a cemetery on the parcel). The two suits were consolidated; first hearing 2026-08-26, status conference set 2026-11-23, no ruling issued as of 2026-08-27. …
These reviews flag conflicting scope, inconsistent source text or support that has not been established. A withheld value may appear in the explanation, but is not displayed as an established field. The upstream row remains attributed under Sources.

What the source record says
Proposed multi-building hyperscale campus (10 buildings x ~200,000 sq ft, ~2M sq ft total) at the Cave City Industrial Park spanning Cave City and unincorporated Barren County. Combined critical capacity reported as 'about 1,200 megawatts.' Jobs figure of 360 is direct jobs at full build-out (300 data-center operations + 60 power generation, per the source, implying an on-site generation component not independently confirmed or itemized this run -- no separate power_generation record created without a source stating its own capacity/technology). An additional ~569 indirect/induced jobs were estimated (total ~929) but only the direct figure is recorded here. Developer/operator name is the plaintiff of record in the zoning lawsuit (Kentucky Industrial Alliance LLC), which the coverage also identifies as the current landowner; no separate development-company name was disclosed in the sources checked. Exact parcel location within the industrial park not confirmed -- coordinates are a Cave City town-center pin.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.
