From the meeting
On October 19, 2026, council reviewed SLU 26-02 for a proposed data center at 27181 Southern St. The plan was for a 40,000-square-foot warehouse to be converted into a micro-data center with servers, electrical infrastructure, cooling systems, and backup power generation. Staff said the project would require a public hearing, SLU approval, final site plan approval, and outstanding performance studies on energy, water, noise, air quality, and utility costs.
The proposal was tied to about $75 million in private capital.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
