Neighbors push back on 400-acre data center campus in Hanover

Concern is growing among residents of Hanover, Henrico and Goochland counties as a 400-acre data center project nears its first major vote. The Hunting Hawk Technology Center is scheduled to go before Hanover’s Planning Commission in late January 2026 — but its location along the three-county border has already drawn hundreds of residents to speak out. Julianne Freakley, a Henrico resident who lives within eyesight of the site near Ashland Road, said the project was not what she expected. https://www.wric.com/news/local-news/neighbors-push-back-data-center-campus-hanover/
