A data center worth $3.9 billion has been approved for construction in Spalding County, Georgia.

On January 22, the Spalding County Board of Commissioners unanimously approved three zoning requests related to a data center, effectively allowing applicant Wallace Jackson LLC to construct a 190-acre campus located at 5745 and 5841 Jackson Road that could total up to nearly five million sq ft (463,215 sqm) across ten buildings.

The project could reach full build-out by 2035, according to the filing.

The landowner is listed as Doug of Havenwood Holdings. This is likely local developer Doug Adams, who has previously been involved with large warehouse developments in Georgia (and not to be confused with the NTT GDC CEO of the same name).

This is the latest data center approved by the Spalding County Board of Commissioners, which has been keen to welcome data centers on the basis that they bring in tax revenue for the local government.

Two other data center campuses, totaling 3.9 million sq ft (362,321 sqm) of building space, were approved last year by the Spalding County board of commissioners.

Spalding Investments LLC had filed to develop eight two-story data centers on 127 acres in Griffin, while Montana Property Group LLC’s Project Spalding campus could total 2.55 million square feet (236,900 sqm).

Spalding County is located 40 miles (64km) south of Atlanta, the state capital.
