Clarifying Social Media Posts About Peachtree City and Fayette County

Peachtree City Council Member Clint Holland has issued a public statement to fayette-news.net to correct widespread misinformation on social media platforms concerning Peachtree City and Fayette County. The posts, which Holland describes as "incorrect" and "untruths," center on rumors of annexation, data center developments, and water usage. H olland specifically refutes claims that Peachtree City was planning to annex land in Coweta County. He cites Georgia state law O.C.G.A. § 36-36-23(b), which stipulates that annexation across county borders requires approval from the adjoining county's governing authority. Holland states that Coweta County has expressed no interest in granting such approval, rendering any such annexation rumors "moot." The council member also briefly touches on data centers, noting their varied sizes and their essential role in modern communication, implying that some social media fears about them are misplaced or based on incomplete information. While mentioning a large data center in Fayetteville (implied to be in Fayette County), he does not provide specific details about new projects in Peachtree City itself, instead focusing on the general concept of data centers. H olland's primary message is a call for informed discussion based on "verifiable facts" rather than "conjecture" and "conspiracy theory," emphasizing the negative impact of such misleading posts on the city's reputation.
