Lansing-area data center plan dead two weeks after it was announced

LANSING — Less than two weeks after unveiling a data center community engagement proces s officials hoped would flip the script on the hotly contested developments, the project is dead. The announcement of a possible data center in Delhi Township and Holt, on the south side of Lansing, by a local economic development agency was met with immediate opposition. The township ended its partnership with the economic development group the next day and had unanimously approved a resolution opposing the data center within three days of the announcement. On Monday, Nov. 9, the Lansing Economic Area Partnership (LEAP) said the deal is no more. Lighthouse Sustainability, the pre-development firm that intended to work with the community to address concerns about the $10 billion data center, withdrew its interest in the site. LEAP will now look to other "non-data center opportunities" for the site, said Bob Trezise, president and CEO of LEAP. “While we are disappointed that a public dialogue was not truly allowed to begin, we thank the Delhi Township community and Lighthouse Sustainability for their participation and feedback, though brief,” Trezise said in a statement. The project in Delhi Township was announced Oct. 27, six months into a one-year
