KOKH reported on June 22, 2026, that opponents packed Piedmont’s council meeting over the proposed Cloverleaf campus, which planners had recommended denying three weeks earlier. The discussion was rescheduled for the end of July. The article attributes projections of up to 1.4 gigawatts and initial cooling-water use of 75,000 gallons daily for up to four months to Cloverleaf representative Aaron Bilyeu; they are not measured consumption. The account says Cloverleaf representatives did not get to speak at the council meeting, so those figures should not be presented as council testimony. The reporting does not establish that the proposed facilities would run exclusively AI workloads.
