Strickland Road Farm Data Center

Strickland Road Farms, LLC. Filed.

A proposed 249.8 acre, 1.25 million square foot data center with an on-site substation east of Simpson Mill Road and north of Walker Drive in unincorporated Henry County. The Henry County Zoning Advisory Board recommended denial in November 2024, citing proximity to homes, and the Board of Commissioners postponed a final vote into 2025. Public reporting found by this research does not confirm a final commission decision, so this project is listed as still on the public record pending resolution.
