Coweta Residents Oppose Project Sail Data Center Due to Location Concerns
Residents of Coweta County, led by Steve Swope from Citizens for Rural Coweta, oppose the proposed Project Sail data center due to its location in a rural area. They advocate for industrial development to be situated in existing industrial zones. Concerns include the potential impact on the rural environment, increased traffic during construction, and unrealistic tax revenue projections. A public hearing on the rezoning request is scheduled for April 7.

Residents of Coweta County oppose the proposed Project Sail data center, which requires rezoning of 832 acres from rural conservation to industrial. Citizens for Rural Coweta, led by Steve Swope, argue the project should be located in existing industrial areas.
Concerns include the impact on rural land, increased traffic with an estimated 4,000 daily trips during a projected 10-year construction period, and doubts about the projected $100 million annual tax revenue. A public hearing on the rezoning is set for April 7.
