Is a Data Center Coming

Lowndes County, GA

Coleman Road Data Center

DC BLOX. Approved.

Lowndes County commissioners voted on July 8, 2025 to rezone about 719 acres on Coleman Road near the Foxborough subdivision from commercial and conservation zoning to light manufacturing and conservation, a change that would allow a data center though it is not an automatic approval. Atlanta based DC BLOX has been named in connection with the site but has released few details. The rezoning has drawn sustained opposition from a group called Lowndes Citizens Against Data Centers, with a county information session held July 28, 2026 and no site plan, power figures, or building permit yet on record.
