Nonprofit, 5 Residents Sue Utah Officials Over Stratos Data Center Plan

Summary
Five Box Elder County residents and a progressive nonprofit sued officials who approved the Stratos hyperscale data center plan in Hansel Valley, alleging residents’ rights were violated.
The complaint targets the Military Installation Development Authority and Box Elder County leaders over the O’Leary project, which plaintiffs say was greenlit through an unlawful process.
Utah Senate President J. Stuart Adams and state Sen. Jerry Stevenson are also named as defendants because both serve on the MIDA board.
The case opens a new legal front against a major data center development planned for remote northern Utah, where local governance and land-use authority are now under challenge.
