Forest County Potawatomi Community and tribal-owned Data Holdings are seeking Milwaukee Common Council permission to expand their data center at 3234 W State Street. A filing seeks rezoning for an expansion that would not exceed 59,000 sq ft; the existing facility spans 46,000 sq ft and serves more than 70 customers. Milwaukee approved a moratorium on new and expanded data centers on October 13, but it exempts land in planned development districts, including this site. Data Holdings says it is exploring an adjacent vacant lot on Tribal trust land and remains several months from specific plans.
