Beale’s Debut Hyperscale Beast Rises in Tulsa County as Residents Brace for Impact!
Beale Infrastructure was just incorporated in August 2024 and has built ZERO data centers, although they claimed in their press release (below) they develop them all over the U. S. Fact is their debut act is Project Clydesdale in Tulsa County that was kicked off with a groundbreaking ceremony on October 30, 2025. They dangled a shiny $3 billion investment for up to four centers totally 800,000 sq. ft on 400 acres promising 100 high-tech jobs, "thousands" of construction gigs, and cash infusions for schools, roads, and infrastructure. Local bigwigs fell all over themselves cheering the "economic boom" like it's a sure thing. If ever a project needed a watchdog, it's this one.
Why did County Commissioners Stan Sallee, Lonnie Sims, and Kelly Dunkerley fast-track this noob company from spring 2025 rezoning chats to unanimous approval in September—before the ink was dry on their incorporation papers? Red flags are everywhere: Skimpy public notice---a similar project proposed in AZ is on hold because of concerns raised that will now go full-stream forward in Tulsa County---5–10 million gallons of water guzzled daily, massive power demands amid PSO's rate hike requests and grid wobbles, Beale's sustainability and infrastructure upgrade promises, potential environmental fallout, and who-knows-what taxpayer burdens lurking in the shadows. Was this a bold vision or a reckless gamble with our resources?
