Since this seems to be a misapprehension by a couple of commentators I'll put this as a top-level comment. The family bringing the lawsuit is not the family that donated the land.
- _heimdall 4mo ago(Sorry, I don't have access to read the full article) Is the family suing a member of the city? If so they still seem like valid complainants in the case since its publicly owned land.
- sapphicsnail 4mo agoThe land has changed hands a few times since it was deeded to the county. They're sueing the entity that sold it to the people developing the data center.
- culi 4mo ago1. Cromwell family donated 87 acres to nonprofit Texas Parks and Wildlife Foundation in 1999 2. City sold 53 of those acres to Blueprint for $10 million in 2024. In addition, the city gave Blueprint 50% rebate on property taxes for 10 years and a 50% rebate on local sales-and-use tax collected on construction material purchases 3. Local neighbors sue to stop the violation of the deed. Judge dismisses the case on "no standing" in 2025. https://old.reddit.com/r/InterstellarKinetics/comments/1u0cf9l https://old.reddit.com/r/InterstellarKinetics/comments/1u0cf...
