Who is behind it
The record, newest first
Baxtel lists Colovore's planned DFW01 at 200 Long Creek Rd, Mesquite, as a ~203,000 sq ft liquid-cooled building with halls slated for 2028-2029. (Baxtel, undated)
Mesquite adopted Ordinance No. 5259 setting data center standards, generally requiring a conditional use permit in industrial and certain planned development districts. (Mesquite Economic Development, Aug. 27, 2026)
The April 6 council agenda included a request (item 26-8174) to reconsider the March 16 denial for the East Tract at 180, 200, 270 and 300 Long Creek Road. (City of Mesquite, April 6, 2026)
Mesquite City Council denied zoning application Z0126-0434, a request to amend the industrial planned development on Long Creek Road for a data center, after the Planning and Zoning Commission had recommended approval. (KERA News, June 2, 2026; Hoodline, June 5, 2026)
Conflicts and open questions
- Under 50 MW (about 48 MW).
- City records reviewed name only a consulting firm as applicant; the Colovore link comes from Baxtel's listing at 200 Long Creek Rd with a matching building size. Treat developer attribution as reported.
- Baxtel page undated; event dated to retrieval.
- Coordinates approximate (east Mesquite, Long Creek Road); not parcel-verified. County set to Dallas from the Mesquite location.
