MOUNT PLEASANT, Wis. (CBS 58) -- The Village of Mount Pleasant announced plans Monday, March 27, for an agreement with Microsoft Corporation. The village says Microsoft plans to purchase a 315-acre parcel of land in Racine County with the goal of creating a $1 billion data center campus.

“Microsoft was attracted to this location because it is primed for development,” said Village of Mount Pleasant President David DeGroot. “Through local investments, we have transformed this area of Mount Pleasant and equipped it with the infrastructure necessary to support a major investment by Microsoft.”

The proposal will be considered by the Mount Pleasant Village Board on March 30 and by the Racine County Board at its April 11 and April 18 meetings.

“Our first commitment is always to local taxpayers,” said Claude Lois, Project Director for the Village of Mount Pleasant. “That will be the case as we move forward with Microsoft.”

Pending approvals, the village says site work could begin later this year.
