50 is about right, 1500 maybe for construction, but the revenue

is the property tax on the building and all the equipment in it. I am not saying I agree with it just stating the overall picture.

The new AZ facility near Charlottesville is interesting with ties to UVA
Va AandM • 10/20/25 05:31 PM ET
If you have ever enjoyed Charlottesville traffic...maybe a blessing it is
Tuckahokie • 10/20/25 06:13 PM ET
It’s a manufacturing plant. Doesn’t require many folks to run. Tiny output
Va AandM • 10/21/25 08:07 AM ET
I was thinking that too. That location on 29 north will be brutal if
501 • 10/20/25 07:14 PM ET
That decision was so short-sighted

HOKIERIT • 10/20/25 04:52 PM ET
Loudoun is running out of power. It's power that runs out way before land.**
BG Hokie • 10/21/25 03:04 PM ET
That is because of the HUGE power drain of EACH data center. Dominion->
HOKIERIT • 10/21/25 04:26 PM ET
Yeah, that went without saying, I thought.**
BG Hokie • 10/21/25 04:27 PM ET
Yeah, it did. Just adding context about what Dominion is doing and WHO pays
HOKIERIT • 10/21/25 06:28 PM ET
Without these Data Centers, how are we going to use AI to revolutionize TSL
Hokie Chris • 10/21/25 10:14 AM ET
Still building them in Loudoun**
turkeywinghokie • 10/20/25 08:58 PM ET

I live in Stafford on a large property with a 750 kV transmission running
pine52x • 10/20/25 05:57 PM ET
Problem with data centers, as you well know, is they spring in clusters->
HOKIERIT • 10/20/25 07:05 PM ET
Does not sound good for the county. I would not want that. **
pine52x • 10/20/25 07:25 PM ET

VaTechie • 10/20/25 11:51 PM ET
Do you have some links to stories about that?
MP4VT2004 • 10/20/25 10:17 PM ET
One last note. The Discussion on the website shows "some" result of all ->
HOKIERIT • 10/21/25 09:50 AM ET
A link to Goochland Website. Where in Goochland did your parents move?->
HOKIERIT • 10/21/25 09:38 AM ET
They're in Mosaic, ha. Looks like the TOD backs up to the house across...
MP4VT2004 • 10/21/25 09:57 AM ET
Yeah. I have friends in Mosaic. We live in The Parke at Manakin Woods.->
HOKIERIT • 10/21/25 10:47 AM ET
Here is one of the stories. I bet they ARE aware of it. I'll link another**

GreenvilleVT • 10/20/25 02:43 PM ET
LOL. A perennially popular industry, now in its (at least) 8th decade.**
PhotoHokieNC • 10/20/25 03:53 PM ET
I'd trade it for Goochland's data centers in a MINUTE!**

There is a larger effort that connects Roanoke/Blacksburg
s.mill hokie • 10/20/25 02:41 PM ET
I’m interested in hearing what happened to the fish farm that was going to
Vtskier1 • 10/21/25 08:25 AM ET
It’s typically about access to highways and interstates for logistics. **
Stork • 10/20/25 02:02 PM ET
Yep. And population centers. **
