Official City records now document active annexation/land-use review and executive-session economic-development discussions involving entities identified in connection with the project. A scheduled discussion is not the same as a final approval or executed incentive agreement.
Key distinction: the August 13, 2026 agenda confirms a scheduled closed-session deliberation concerning Big Watt Digital LLC and PH DIGITAL DATA CENTER DEVELOPMENT LLC (formerly Project Mustang). It does not by itself establish approval, an incentive amount, an executed agreement, or project authorization.
