The developer behind an AI data center approved in Port Washington is backing away from plans to buy up land near Green Bay. Residents in the Village of Greenleaf caught wind of the project when some landowners started getting offers from an undisclosed buyer.

The move will cut 8-million pounds of greenhouse gas emissions generated by landfilling.
