Is a Data Center Coming

Monroe County, GA

Google Data Center (Rumble Road)

Google. Filed

Google purchased about 948.8 acres along Rumble Road near Interstate 75 outside Juliette in Monroe County for roughly 42.6 million dollars, with the land sale closing in September 2025. On September 8, 2026 the Monroe County Board of Commissioners voted 4-1 to approve a financial framework under which Google would pay more than 1.2 billion dollars over the course of construction and a 20 year lease, structured through the county's Development Authority rather than standard property taxes. The vote set financial terms only; site plan and construction approvals are still pending and no megawatt figure has been disclosed.
