Description
In an abrupt last-minute move, Google has withdrawn its proposal to build a massive data center in Franklin Township, just minutes before the Indianapolis City-County Council was set to vote on the project.
The rezoning plan, known as codename "Project Flo," would have converted nearly 470 acres of farmland into a data center campus. Supporters saw billions in investment, jobs and tax relief for Franklin Township schools. People against the project cite not enough jobs, power and water strain and no tax benefit.
