CURRENT PUBLIC SIGNAL

What we know now

A city-owned industrial tract and a separate rural Hill County proposal remain part of an active land-use and legal debate.

This is a working local record. Status reflects public announcements, filings, construction reports, and operating information available on the review date—not a guarantee that every proposed phase will be built.

State permit audit: Since September 21, 2026, TCEQ has paused data-center-related permit approvals while the ERCOT and Texas Water Development Board audits proceed. A filing, registration, or local approval does not establish that every required state authorization has been issued.
