- Planned · 0A TCEQ air permit on file with no mapped building yet, or a project announced in the news. Permits come before buildings, so this is the early-warning state.
- Paused · 0News reporting the project on hold.

Ohio Supreme Court: Trenton's data center ban must go before voters
Residents gathered 336 valid signatures; the council claimed 820 were needed; the correct number was 128. The unanimous court found "clear and convincing evidence that the council disregarded applicable law" and ordered the measure onto the ballot.

How this registry is counted
One row is one campus. OpenStreetMap maps individual buildings, so buildings within 400 meters of each other fold into a single facility; a facility found by two sources within 400 meters of each other is one row that lists both. Coordinates are never altered — a merged row keeps the mapped building’s position.
Status is inferred from what each source states and nothing more: a mapped building or a Texas Comptroller registration means the facility exists; a TCEQ air permit with no building yet means it is permitted, not built; a registry entry under a non-air program says nothing about construction, and the row says so. No source here confirms anything on site.
State and county come from the U.S. Census TIGER/Line county boundaries the facility point falls inside. Every count on this page is computed from the same registry file — nothing is typed in by hand.
Questions
How many data centers are in Butler County, Ohio?
As of the September 18, 2026 registry snapshot, Butler County has 2 facilities: 2 operational. Named facilities include CyrusOne Cincinnati-Hamilton CIN4, Flexential Cincinnati. Only facilities recorded by a public source Geolocity mirrors are counted.
Where do these rows come from?
Buildings tagged as data centers in OpenStreetMap, the Texas Comptroller's data-center program registry, and facilities registered as data centers in TCEQ's Central Registry. Each row links the record it came from. County placement uses U.S. Census TIGER/Line boundaries.
What does a data center near a parcel mean for the land?
Two things a landowner cannot see from the surface: demand for nearby land and competition for local water and power. The Geolocity parcel report shows every facility within 25 miles of a specific address alongside the aquifer beneath it and the county's industrial water use. This page is the public record; it is information, not advice.
