Hood County residents sue city of Granbury over proposed data center

Hood County residents have initiated a lawsuit against the City of Granbury and its leadership, challenging the municipality's handling of a proposed 2,000-acre data center project situated near Highway 377. The lawsuit alleges that Granbury City Council members "willfully evaded disclosing" crucial project specifics to the public, further claiming the use of a "falsified City Council agenda report" to obscure information. Plaintiffs also accuse the council of violating the Texas Open Meetings Act by secretly touring a Dallas data center just days before a pivotal vote in Granbury. City officials, when contacted, stated they could not comment on the pending litigation, while the proposed data center site continues to be a point of contention for local residents.
