Provider notes
Energy. Dakota Electric will serve the project. Tract would fund and build an on-site substation.
Water. The developer plans to cap water use at 43 million gallons a year. The city uses about 250 million gallons a year.
Community. The council approved the CUP and development agreement 4-2. Some residents spoke against the project.
What the source record says
The site lies just north of Cannon Falls, between Highway 52 and Rochester Blvd, on land annexed from Randolph Township. Reported acreage is about 240 to 250+ acres. The pin is the city centroid because no parcel point was sourced. The Post Bulletin article (Nov 6, 2025) says the vote was 'Wednesday', inferred as Nov 5, 2025. Investment figures conflict ('$30 billion over 20 years' per KSTP versus 'hundreds of millions to potentially a billion' per KTTC), so investment is omitted.
Any MW value is reproduced as source-reported context. Its measurement boundary is not established consistently enough for comparison. Unknown is not zero.

Compute Atlas 1.34.1 with retained prior rows and publication holds. This is a DataCenterData composite, not an unmodified publisher edition. This row uses the captured source from 1.34.1, source as of 2026-10-14T20:40:52.293Z.
That does not mean the row is wrong, and it does not mean no reviewed record exists for the same place. A link is added only when an identifier or source establishes the match.
