# Coushatta Management 145th Street Data Center Site Plan (Feb 2024)
An **earlier data-center site plan at the 145th Street site**, filed and administratively approved **eight months before** [[AVAIO Digital Partners|AVAIO]]'s September 2024 hyperscale filing. The applicant of record is **Coushatta Management, LLC**; the engineer is [[Harbor Environmental]]. The folder name spells it "Coushutta"; the county's own Notice of Site Plan Review and cover letter spell it **"Coushatta."**
## What's inside
- `Cover Letter.pdf` (2024-01-24, Harbor Environmental, Andrew Rike, P.E.) — the site-plan submission letter.
- `Notice of Site Plan Review 145th Street Data Center.pdf` (2024-02-27) — the county's approval notice.
- `145th Street Data Center Site Plan.docx` (2024-02-02) — the completed county site-plan checklist.
- `E 145th Response letter.pdf` (2024-02-08, Woodrow Martin, P.E.) — Harbor's response to staff/engineer comments.
- `012424 email.pdf` — the transmittal email thread.
- Supporting: `Survey.pdf`, `Survey SoT.pdf`, `QCVFD approval letter.pdf`, `145th Street Sewer Service Approval letter.pdf`, `145th Street Wetland Assessment_Draft_Rev 1_2.7.24.pdf`, `23637 East 145 St Site Development Pulaski County Permit Set 01-24-2024.pdf`, `Construction Stormwater - Notice of Coverage-ARR158136.pdf`.
## Key takeaways
- **Applicant and scale.** The cover letter requests site-plan approval "on behalf of the owner, **Coushatta Management**" for "construction of a proposed **60,000 square foot building** along with the necessary parking" (`Cover Letter.pdf`). This is a *single* mid-size building — roughly two orders of magnitude smaller than AVAIO's later hyperscale campus.
- **The county titled it a data center.** The approval notice's development name is **"Coushatta Management Data Center Site Plan,"** owner/developer **"Coushatta Management, LLC,"** location "1700 block of 145th Street," engineer "Woody Martin, Harbor Environmental," with **"SITE PLAN REVIEW STATUS: Completed"** and **"PLANNING DEPT APPROVAL DATE: 2-23-24"** (`Notice of Site Plan Review 145th Street Data Center.pdf`). "PLANNING BOARD APPROVAL MEETING DATE: N/A."
- **Same site, same utilities, same fire district as AVAIO.** Water from Central Arkansas Water; wastewater from the **145th Street Sewer and Water Improvement District 345**; approval letter from the **Quail Creek Volunteer Fire Department** — the identical utility/fire framework that recurs in AVAIO's later package, confirming this is the same 145th Street parcel.
- **Counsel and contacts.** The transmittal email (`012424 email.pdf`) copies **Pete Peterson** (`
[email protected]`), **Randy Coleman** (`
[email protected]`, Jack Nelson Jones law firm), and Harbor's Andrew Rike and John Strange. Engineer of record: **Woodrow "Woody" Martin, P.E.**, Director of Engineering, Harbor Environmental.
