Taylor advances major data center project amid resident pushback$

The City of Taylor, Texas, is advancing a 665-acre data center project known as "Project Mustang" despite significant resident opposition and state-level scrutiny. The city is also updating its zoning code to regulate large-scale digital infrastructure projects, with a vote expected in September. A resident-led petition for a temporary moratorium on data centers was rejected by the City Council.
