Oracle data center project in Idaho’s Treasure Valley falls apart.

Officials at software giant Oracle walked away from an agreement to build a data center in the Treasure Valley two weeks ago when a property owner in Meridian raised the price of the real estate by 44 percent just as the deal was closing, sources told the Idaho Business Review.

Five sources who were aware of the project but would not speak on record said the project was a done deal until the property owner upped the price. None of the sources would identify the property owner or location of the property.
