Proposed-site record

Project Delta

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.

Compute Workload

This panel tracks what the facility is for without assuming that every project is AI training, inference, or cloud capacity.

Undisclosed / unknownUnknown

No source-backed workload, customer, hardware, or training/inference allocation is attached to this record yet.

Workload classification remains unknown in the reviewed record.

Public Money

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.

Power

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.
