Project Turbo
Operator not disclosed. Withdrawn.
Project Turbo was a proposed 1.2 billion dollar, 900,000 square foot data center campus on 119 acres off O'Kelly Road in southeast Hall County near Gainesville. After months of resident opposition over water use (an estimated 225,000 gallons per day) and traffic, the developer withdrew the special use application in December 2025 rather than face a commission vote. Hall County has since been drafting a data center ordinance as its prior moratorium expired in summer 2026, but no new specific project has been reported there as of this writing.
