Fredericksburg City Council Unanimously Denies Data Center Rezoning After Midnight Hearing

The Fredericksburg City Council unanimously voted to deny a rezoning request and special use permit for a proposed 1 million sq ft data center project. The decision followed an extensive public hearing and aligned with the Planning Commission's previous recommendations, primarily because the site was outside the city's designated Technology Overlay District. This denial means the city will forgo an estimated $23.4 million in annual tax revenue from the project.
