Is a Data Center Coming

Spartanburg County, SC

300 Jones Road data center

Operator not disclosed. Denied.

A pending data center proposal at 300 Jones Road, filed by Lighthouse Data Centers, seeking to build without local tax incentives. Spartanburg County's Planning and Development Commission denied the application on June 26, 2026 citing zoning ordinance compliance issues and the county's newly adopted data center moratorium, and the county's Board of Zoning Appeals unanimously upheld that denial at its August 25, 2026 meeting, described in local coverage as the project's second and final rejection. This is separate from the countywide one year data center moratorium, which Spartanburg County Council was still set to take up on third reading around September 21, 2026.
