Project Delta's initial rezoning was voided after notice-related litigation, while a new application was reported in July 2026. The developer's utility-cost and tax-revenue statements improve provenance but do not establish the dataset's hyperscale label as requested, approved, energized, generation, or data-center IT-load capacity.

No source-backed workload, customer, hardware, or training/inference allocation is attached to this record yet.
Workload classification remains unknown in the reviewed record.
Data Fields
Source leads point to attached records or reporting. They still need field-level review before being treated as verified evidence.
Project Delta's developer advertises more than $40 million in projected annual local tax revenue at full buildout and says it will pay its energy upgrades and utility costs. These are attributed projections/commitments, not public spending or verified receipts.
The developer describes a closed-loop design, but the reviewed public record does not establish a withdrawal, consumption, cooling, or wastewater-service quantity.
The developer says Project Delta would use the adjacent Belews Creek infrastructure and that it would pay for the project's energy upgrades and utility costs; this is a developer-stated planned service arrangement, not confirmed requested, approved, energized, generation, or data-center IT-load capacity. The county's January 2026 rezoning was later voided for notice defects, and a new rezoning application was reported in July 2026.
