Current canonical record

This record tracks Mercer County Data Center (Handy Road) in Kentucky.

A Mercer County site near Handy Road and Burgin is being pursued or marketed for a data center by American Farm Investors and JLL Louisville Real Estate. July 2026 local reporting said the proposal faces nearby landowner concern, the site is across from DesMar Stables, and Burgin officials determined a July 9 first reading of an annexation ordinance was invalid, canceling the anticipated July 20 second reading. Earlier Mercer County materials described the broader Bailey Pike/Burgin-area marketing effort as privately led and speculative rather than locally incentivized.
