Steve Flowers, the Village President of North Pekin, Illinois, has said that a former AMC theater in the area will not be turned into a data center.
“There is no way that I see in the foreseeable future that a data center would locate here, just because of the logistics of the place and the area they need to operate,” Flowers told 25News at a board meeting on June 8.

Local residents were worried that the potential rezoning of the former AMC Pekin 14 at 1124 Edgewater Drive, set to be considered today at the North Pekin Planning and Zoning Commission, would lead to a potential data center proposal.
The property was bought by IT company North 52, and rumors spread online that this would lead to a data center proposal.
