In the northeast corner of Troup County, a 437-acre plot of land on the outskirts of the 3,000-person town of Hogansville has become the center of debate as a developer vies to purchase the land for a data center.
The Jones County Board of Commissioners rescinded a series of ordinances pertaining to data centers Tuesday night due to concerns that those laws may not have been passed legally.
On Thursday, the Urban Development Authority signed a deal to sell to Mercer University the old Transit Authority site and adjacent land next to the Burger King in the 800 block of Riverside Drive.
