AGP Executive Report

Last update: 5 hours ago

Data Centers in Kentucky: A hyperscale developer, TeraWulf, told Kentucky regulators it’s aligning with Gov. Andy Beshear’s data-center executive order after filing an “energy plan” for a proposed 482-megawatt project at the former Century Aluminum smelter site in Hancock County, promising tax and environmental compliance plus community engagement. Local Governance & AI: Kentucky leaders are debating how to manage the AI/data-center boom—balancing utility-rate concerns and economic development upside against community disruption—while London, Ky., is weighing a data-center moratorium tied to infrastructure limits and transparency. Child Safety Lawsuit: Kentucky is part of a 29-state coalition suing Meta over alleged youth harm from Instagram/Facebook design choices and improper collection of children’s data, with the trial in Oakland raising potential penalties up to $1.4 trillion. Transportation Policy: Lawmakers discussed allowing delivery robots in Kentucky, including DoorDash’s “Dot,” as bills stalled over safety and impacts on delivery workers. Education & Taxes: Graves County school leaders set a proposed 2027 tax rate, and Logan County kept its general fund real estate rate steady while weighing trust and school-facilities funding. Food & Farming: A Kentucky food-focused story highlights farmers’ market relationships and seasonality as part of a broader push to connect consumers to producers. Business Notes: Buchheit bought its Murray building, turning a lease into a long-term asset as it anchors growth in Western Kentucky.
