Local votes and rules
✅ Approved
Marietta City Council voted 5-2 to approve an 11-acre data center on Powers Ferry Place off Delk Road, after protests about noise, utility bills and home values. The city's pause did not apply because the developer, Prime Group Holdings, applied before it started.
⏸️ Pause on new data centers
Marietta City Council passed a pause on all new data center projects through December 31, 2026, and set aside a rezoning request for a data center on Powers Ferry Place. The pause did not cover applications already filed.
