Is a Data Center Coming

Adams County, CO

Northeast Brighton Data Center Campus (Dewberry rezoning application)

Dewberry. Withdrawn

The developer behind the proposed eight-building, 2.5 million square foot data center campus near County Road 4 and 50th Avenue in northeast Brighton withdrew its rezoning application on October 6, 2026, the day before a scheduled city council meeting. Despite the withdrawal, Brighton's city council voted unanimously on October 7, 2026 to pass a one-year moratorium on new data center applications on first reading, having expanded an initially proposed 180 day pause; a second reading is scheduled for October 20, 2026. No developer name was confirmed in city filings beyond planning firm Dewberry, though neighborhood opposition groups had identified the developer as California based Raeden.
