Conflicts and open questions
- The second-read vote scheduled for March 11, 2025 is supported only by Potomac Local's statement that Council approved the project in early March. The city's minutes were not opened.
- No information from 2026 was found on site plans, the water agreement or construction.
- Coordinates are approximate, placed in Celebrate Virginia South between Gordon W. Shelton Blvd and Hilton Drive.
The full record
- Status note
- City Council approved the Technology Overlay District, which allows data centers by right, on first read in February 2025, and Potomac Local reported that Council approved the project in early March 2025. Full buildout still depends on final entitlements, a water services agreement with the city, and new Dominion transmission.
