A tenth paper trail · Carroll County, Georgia

The proposal was pulled. The public record is not finished.

Project Bus shows how a data-center fight can disappear from the agenda before the basic accounting is done. Atlas Development proposed a large campus near Temple, then withdrew it after annexation and community opposition concerns. That is a documented turn in the process—not proof that the project was harmless, or that every rumor around it was true.

What the paper trail shows

Data Center Dynamics reported a proposed 350-acre campus with up to 12 buildings and two substations. The state's Development of Regional Impact filing gives the proposal a public planning record. Neither source establishes a requested or approved load, an operating site, a tenant, or a disclosed workload.

A local report says the proposal was pulled on August 4, 2026 amid annexation and community opposition concerns. The tracker's reported $11 billion project-cost field is still an unverified lead—not public spending, a subsidy, or a receipt. The withdrawal also does not answer what utility, water, wastewater, land, or tax arrangements were being discussed.
