Residents of Lawrence, Kansas, have filed a lawsuit against a proposed $12 billion data center project following its zoning approval, citing environmental concerns and inadequate studies on the impacts of the development. The facility, which would be the largest in Wyandotte County, has drawn opposition due to health issues reported by locals from similar sites and the significant energy and water demands it would impose. A district judge has allowed part of the lawsuit to proceed while dismissing another aspect pending further zoning decisions.
