Conflicts and corrections

An earlier draft said Pinal County approved the amendment. The county resolution page was not retrievable, so the approval is not confirmed here.

What this page does not establish

  • Final board vote and approval date.
  • Megawatts of the data center and the BESS capacity.
  • Whether a rezoning application followed.
