Adams to hold town hall on AWS proposal for third data center campus
Mineral District Supervisor Duane Adams wants to hear his constituents’ thoughts on a controversial proposal from Amazon Web Services (AWS) to build a third data center campus in the county’s Technology Overlay District (TOD).
If approved by the board of supervisors, the campus would include up to 7.2 million square feet of data center buildings and seven substations on 1,370 agriculturally zoned acres (A-2) just north of the Northeast Creek Reservoir.
Data centers are large warehouse-like facilities that house the backbone of the internet, enabling cloud computing and other web-based services. They’re prized by localities for the significant tax revenue they generate but require a vast amount of electricity to keep their servers and networking equipment humming and, typically, large quantities of water for cooling.
The property eyed for the campus has historically been used for timber production. It sits in the heart of the Mineral District, stretching from just south of Davis Highway (Route 22) to just north of Jefferson Highway (Route 33) and nearly touching Kennon Road (Route 665) at its southeastern edge and School Bus Road (Route 767) near its northwestern end.
Adams will hold a town hall to discuss the proposal this Thursday, June 26 from 6:30 to 8:00 pm at Louisa County High School’s Alan Jackson Theater. The meeting is open to all Louisa County residents.
“One of the most important aspects of this job is to communicate directly and clearly to the people who elect you to office,” Adams said in an email to Engage Louisa on Thursday. “This Town Hall will be held at Louisa County High School due to what I hope and expect to be a significant number of people who will attend.”
The town hall comes on the heels of a county-sponsored neighborhood meeting earlier this month that drew about 100 people, many of whom expressed concerns or outright opposition to the project.
Some residents said that another data center campus isn’t compatible with their rural community, arguing it would overwhelm local infrastructure, like roads and the public water supply, displace wildlife and bring noise and light pollution.
The neighborhood meeting marked the first step in AWS’s pursuit of a conditional use permit (CUP), which the county must issue for the project to move forward. The request next goes to the planning commission for a public hearing and recommendation then to the board of supervisors for a second public hearing and a final up-or-down vote. The commission could consider the project as soon as its August 14 meeting.
AWS is already developing a pair of data center campuses in the TOD, a special zoning designation adopted by supervisors two years ago and aimed at attracting lucrative tech sector development. Those facilities are slated for 150 acres off Kentucky Springs Road (Route 652) adjacent to the North Anna Power Station and about 830 acres of a 1444-acre tract off Jefferson Highway just south of the reservoir.
Both projects were permitted by-right—meaning without a public approval process—but the board tweaked the TOD’s rules last year, tacking on a CUP requirement for tech sector development moving forward.
County officials have said the two campuses already under development could include as many as 36 data center buildings at full build-out, which is expected to take more than 15 years. They’ve touted the campuses as a boon for the community.
Officials contend the facilities will deliver compact economic development that creates hundreds of jobs and, perhaps more importantly, generates millions of dollars in local tax revenue annually to pay for schools, fire stations and other services. They say covering those expenses would otherwise fall on the backs of homeowners.
But the public approval process for AWS’s latest proposal has gotten off to a rocky start. During the neighborhood meeting, residents from the Mineral District and beyond quizzed AWS representatives on various aspects of the project, from its water use and impact on their power bill to how much noise and traffic the facility would generate.
Residents got few concrete answers, however, with the applicant repeatedly saying the project is in the “concept phase” and more details would be provided as it moves forward. The lack of specifics didn’t sit well with many attendees.
“This is not the first data center that’s been built, so it’s really confusing to me why you don’t have hard and fast numbers,” one community member said.
To date, Adams has been a proponent of bringing data centers to the county, calling them “smart economic development.” But he seemed annoyed by the lack of details too. In a statement to Engage Louisa after the meeting, he said he left “with more questions than [he] had when [he] went to the meeting.” He announced his town hall in a Facebook video five days later.
The town hall also comes at the start of what’s expected to be a hotly contested race for the right to represent the Mineral District on the board, one of four supervisor seats on the ballot this November.
Adams, a Republican and two-term incumbent, faces independent David Rogers. Rogers announced his candidacy at the neighborhood meeting and has made clear opposition to AWS’s latest project will be the centerpiece of his campaign.
“We have two data centers that are on the board now. Why do we need a third one? It's just too many problems with these data centers, and they're not meeting the needs of people. They take up space. They take up electricity. They take up water,” Rogers said in an interview with Engage Louisa last week.
Adams hasn’t publicly commented on Rogers’ candidacy or taken a position on the proposed third campus. In his email, he noted that this is the 13th town hall he’s held during his nearly eight years on the board and he looks forward to hearing from his constituents.
“The question of an additional data center campus located in the Mineral District is obviously important to our citizens and the community. I strongly believe I have a responsibility to provide a forum for that discussion,” he said.
Adams provided a few more details about what to expect at the event. He said he plans to kick it off with some opening remarks then take questions from attendees.
“Due to the expected turnout, I would ask that questions be concise and to the point with each person limited to one question until everyone who wishes to speak has had an opportunity. This is to allow as many people as possible to participate. I’ll also have cards available for people to submit written questions,” he said.

November ballot nearly set; Two of four supervisor races contested
With last week’s statewide primaries in the books and the filing deadline for most local elections in the rearview mirror, the ballot for the November 4 General Election is nearly set.
In Louisa County, voters in the Mineral, Mountain Road, Patrick Henry and Green Springs Districts will elect their representatives to the board of supervisors and school board. Voters’ choices will be limited, however. Unless write-in candidates emerge, only two of the six races are contested. Two candidates are vying for both the Mineral and Mountain Road District supervisor seats while incumbents in the other four races are running unopposed.
In the Town of Louisa, two candidates are competing in a special election for mayor. In the Town of Mineral, there’s a special election for mayor and two council seats but the deadline for residents to throw their hat in the ring for those contests isn’t until mid-August.
At the state level, voters will cast ballots for governor, lieutenant governor and attorney general and choose their representative in the House of Delegates.
Here’s a quick rundown of what and who’s on the ballot. Be sure to follow Engage Louisa in the coming months for in-depth coverage of the local races. Election Day is Tuesday, November 4, and the 45-day early voting period starts September 19.
Adams, Barlow draw challengers for Mineral, Mountain Road BOS seats; Barnes, Jones unopposed in Patrick Henry, Green Springs
Four of seven seats on the board of supervisors are on the ballot this November, but only two of the contests have more than one candidate.
In the Mineral District, Republican Duane Adams, a two-term incumbent, faces independent David Rogers.
Adams is a retired insurance executive who lives on Lake Anna and owns LKA Watersports, a boat and jet ski rental company. Rogers moved to the county about 16 years ago and has family roots in the area. He operates a small insurance company that insures churches.
If elected, Rogers would be only the fourth African American to serve on the board and the first to represent the Mineral District. He lost a bid to represent Mineral on the school board in a special election two years ago.
In the Mountain Road District, four-term incumbent Tommy Barlow, a surveyor and lifelong Louisa resident, is squaring off against Jack Trammell, a farmer and college professor. Both men are running as independents.
Though the election marks Barlow’s fifth run for a board seat, he’s never faced opposition. Trammell has twice run for office as a Democrat. In 2016, he lost a bid in the Seventh Congressional District to former Congressman Dave Brat, R-Hanover. In January, he lost a special election for the 10th District state Senate seat to Republican Luther Cifers.
In the Green Springs and Patrick Henry Districts, one-term incumbent Rachel Jones and seven-term incumbent Fitzgerald Barnes are both seeking re-election and running unopposed.
Jones ousted Bob Babyok to claim the Green Springs seat four years ago when she ran as a Republican while Barnes, an independent, edged Republican William Woody by just four votes.
Barnes is the board’s only Black member while Jones is the only woman. Both are employed by Louisa County Public Schools.
Four incumbents seek re-election to school board with no opposition
As with the board of supervisors, four seats on the school board are on the ballot this fall. All four incumbents are seeking re-election without opposition.
In the Patrick Henry District, Gregory Strickland is running for his sixth term. Strickland, who’s only faced opposition for his seat in his inaugural campaign 20 years ago, has served as the board’s chair for more than a decade.
In the Mountain Road District, Gail Proffitt is also vying for her sixth term. She currently serves as the board’s vice chair.
In the Green Springs District, Debbie Hoffman is running for her third full term. She claimed her seat in a special election in 2014.
In the Mineral District, Lloyd Runnett, who spent much of his career in emergency management and runs the Louisa County Resource Council, is running for his first full term. He won a spot on the board two years ago, defeating Rogers in a special election.
Two vie for Louisa mayor in special election
In the Town of Louisa, two residents are running in a special election for the right to serve a year-long stint as mayor: one a familiar face with a long history in local politics; the other a political newcomer.
The race includes Matthew Kersey, a lifelong Louisa County resident and retired postal service employee, and Ashley Michael, who moved to the town about a decade ago and works in human resources. The two are competing to finish the term of former Mayor Garland Nuckols, who resigned last fall.
Kersey currently represents the Louisa District on the county’s planning commission. He served on the board of supervisors in the 1980s and early ‘90s and has held appointed and elected positions in town government. Michael, a Liberty University graduate and mother of four, is making her first run for public office.
The mayor’s seat is currently occupied by acting Mayor Vicky Harte. The Louisa Town Council is in the process of appointing an interim mayor after Danny Carter resigned in May, citing his inability to work with the majority of town council. Council chose Carter, a longtime member, as interim mayor over Kersey last November following Nuckols’ resignation.
Town residents interested in serving as mayor through November’s special election have until July 1 at 5 pm to submit a cover letter and resume to interim Town Manager Craig Buckley. (Click here for more information).
Under state law, council is tasked with appointing an interim mayor within 45 days of the vacancy. If that doesn’t happen, a circuit court judge has the authority.
At least seven days prior to considering an appointment, council must hold a public meeting announcing the names of the candidates under consideration and making their resumes available for public inspection.
Buckley said in an email on Friday that council hasn’t scheduled a meeting to announce the candidates. It’s unclear when members will make an appointment.
Filing deadline to run for Mineral mayor, council seats August 15; Kube to pursue mayor’s office
Residents in the Town of Mineral still have time to get their name on the ballot to pursue a seat on town council or the mayor’s chair.
Two spots on council plus mayor are up for grabs via special elections this fall. The winners will fill the unexpired terms of the offices’ previously elected occupants. The terms run through 2026.
Due to the timing of the resignations that prompted the special elections, Mineral residents have until August 15 at 5 pm to file to run for council or mayor. (more information)
At publication time, Ed Kube, who currently serves as chair of the town’s planning commission, is the only candidate for mayor, according to Louisa County Registrar Cris Watkins.
Kube has extensive experience in local government, including previously serving on town council and chairing the board of supervisors. His wife, Bernice, is a sitting council member.
Former Council Member Ron Chapman currently serves as interim mayor. Council appointed Chapman to the post in February following the resignation of Ed Jarvis. Jarvis left Mineral to take a job out of state.
At publication time, no one had filed to run for either council seat. Olivia McCarthy and Blair Nipper occupy the seats on an interim basis.
McCarthy, a social worker, was elected to council in 2022 but resigned last September, citing work-related stress. Council reappointed her to the seat a few weeks later.
Like McCarthy, town voters elected Nipper to council three years ago. An Army veteran and Purple Heart recipient, she resigned in March of last year due to health concerns.
Nipper was appointed to the body earlier this month to fill the seat vacated by JoAnna Von Arb. Von Arb was appointed in March to fill Chapman’s seat after he resigned to serve as interim mayor. She resigned in May.
Ballot set for state contests
Beyond the local races, Louisa County voters will cast ballots in three statewide contests this fall and choose their representatives in the 100-member House of Delegates.
Democrat Abigail Spanberger and Republican Winsome Earle-Sears are facing off for governor. Spanberger represented the Seventh Congressional District in Congress for three terms. The district previously included Louisa County. Earle-Sears currently serves as lieutenant governor.
The contest is destined to make history regardless of who wins. Either Spanberger or Earle-Sears will become the first woman to serve as Virginia’s governor. Earle-Sears would be the first Black woman to serve as governor of any state.
State Senator Ghazala Hashmi, a Democrat from Chesterfield, and talk radio host John Reid, a Richmond Republican, are facing off for lieutenant governor.
Hashmi, a career educator, is fresh off a win in last week’s Democratic primary where she bested former Richmond Mayor Levar Stoney and four other candidates for the right to represent her party this fall. Reid earned the Republican nod by default after his lone opponent withdrew from the race.
Republican incumbent Jason Miyares and his Democratic challenger Jay Jones are vying for attorney general. Jones, a former member of the House of Delegates who briefly served as an assistant attorney general in Washington, DC, narrowly defeated Henrico County Commonwealth’s Attorney Shannon Taylor in last week’s primary.
In the House races, voters in the 59th District, Republican-friendly terrain that includes most of Louisa, will choose between incumbent Buddy Fowler, R-Hanover, and his Democratic challenger Scott Konopasek. In the 55th District, a blue-leaning area that covers a swath of western Louisa, one-term incumbent Amy Laufer, a Democrat from Albemarle, is running unopposed.
BOS roundup: With eye toward data center revenue, Williams floats sizable tax rebates
The Louisa County Board of Supervisors last Monday night wrapped up public business in less than an hour. Here’s a recap of the meeting. (meeting materials, video)
With eye toward data center revenue, Williams floats tax rebates
With an eye toward revenue anticipated from data center development, Jackson District Supervisor Toni Williams wants county officials to investigate the feasibility of eliminating the county’s personal property tax within three years and slashing real estate taxes on “personal residences” by 30 percent in the next six.
At Monday night’s meeting, Williams proposed paring back both the personal property tax, commonly referred to as the car tax, and the real estate tax not by slashing tax rates but by implementing escalating rebates.
The board has used rebates to extend modest tax relief to residents during recent budget cycles, opting to hold the personal property and real estate tax rates steady at $2.43 per $100 of assessed value and 72-cent per $100, respectively.
Under Williams’ proposal, the county would cut the car tax by a third in Fiscal Year 2027, two-thirds in FY28 and rebate the entire tax in FY29 and subsequent years.
With respect to the real estate tax, Williams wants to rebate the tax on personal residences by 10 percent in FY30, 20 percent in FY31 and 30 percent in FY32 and the following years, assuming there’s revenue available.
While the current board could adopt his plan as a framework, it would be up to future boards to implement it as part of the annual budget process. Taxpayers wouldn’t be required to pay the full tax on their home or car. The rebate would be applied to tax bills automatically, Williams said in a brief interview after the meeting.
Williams said he prefers rebates to rate cuts because it would be difficult to push rates back up should the board need to in the future. He also noted that, under his proposal, rebates on real estate would apply only to personal residences, excluding commercial and industrial endeavors.
Williams is counting on an influx of tax revenue from a pair of Amazon Web Services data center campuses, currently under development in the county’s Technology Overlay District, to make his idea a reality. He asked county staff and the board’s revenue committee, a panel tasked with looking into how the county should use taxes from data centers, to study the proposal and report back to the board on its feasibility “pretty quickly.”
“I feel like our citizens want some definitives on some things, and they deserve some definitives,” Williams said.
The revenue committee currently includes Mountain Road District Supervisor Tommy Barlow and Cuckoo District Supervisor Chris McCotter, who Board Chair Duane Adams (Mineral) appointed at Monday’s meeting. Louisa District Supervisor Manning Woodward and Green Springs District Supervisor Rachel Jones just finished a stint on the panel.
At the board’s June 2 meeting, Jones, Woodward and staff presented a draft plan for how the county could use data center revenue—staff has projected the county could pull in about $36 million in new revenue from the facilities in FY31—proposing annually allocating a fixed percentage of the money to pre-selected priorities. The draft plan only dedicates five percent of the windfall to tax reductions. County officials have emphasized that it’s a work in progress.
While board members have discussed how they’ll spend millions of dollars in revenue anticipated from data centers during a few recent meetings, staff has been tight-lipped about how it arrived at its revenue forecast.
During the committee’s presentation in early June, Finance Director Wanda Colvin and County Administrator Christian Goodwin provided little insight into how they derived the $36 million figure. Colvin described the revenue forecast as “conservative,” noting that staff had used 25 data center buildings as a baseline for the projections.
County officials have said that AWS could build as many as 36 data center buildings across its two campuses with build-out potentially stretching beyond 2040. AWS has since proposed a third campus that could potentially include another two dozen of the warehouse-like facilities. It’s unclear if that project will win board approval.
Economic Development Director Andy Wade has said that one standard data center building is expected to generate more than $2 million for county coffers annually over a 15-year timeframe, mostly from real estate and business personal property taxes (BPP).
He claims that figure accounts for local tax breaks, including a reduced BPP specific to data center equipment and infrastructure and performance grants the county has agreed to give the company. The grants will be drawn from net new revenue derived from the campuses.
Williams acknowledged that the county’s revenue projections are, as he put it, “squishy” because it’s unclear how many data center buildings AWS will build. Still, he’s said the county’s expecting significant revenue, and it’s important that some of it’s used to offset residents’ tax burden.
Aside from the uncertainty surrounding AWS’s plans, data center revenue can be tricky to predict for other reasons. As part of its effort to entice AWS to invest in Louisa, the board of supervisors in 2023 lowered the BPP for data center equipment from $1.90 per $100 of assessed value to $1.25 and implemented an accelerated depreciation schedule that rapidly decreases the taxable value of the equipment over five years. At the start, the county would tax the equipment at 50 percent of its value, but by year five and any year beyond that, it would tax the equipment at just five percent.
That means the amount of tax revenue the county pulls in is heavily impacted by how often the company replaces equipment. Wade has said that AWS typically replaces its equipment every six years or so. But, if it waited a little longer, the county would garner less revenue.
Loudoun County, the global epicenter of the data center industry, pulled in nearly $900 million from data centers in FY25. But, according to media reports, in tax year 2021, Loudoun faced a $60 million shortfall in its projected data center haul—about 10 percent less than anticipated—because companies didn’t replace their servers after the pandemic. Two years ago, Loudoun established a stabilization fund to protect itself against future shortfalls.
In addition to fluctuations in revenue, some entities that store data in the facilities are tax-exempt, which can impact how much money lands in a locality’s coffers, according to Sarah Parmelee, a land use representative with the Piedmont Environmental Council, an organization that’s critical of unbridled data center development.
“For example, if the computer servers that make up the bulk of the facility's taxable value belong to a government entity, they won’t be taxed. With companies like Amazon carrying more government contracts, the amount of revenue generated from their data centers may be less than projected,” Parmelee argued in an opinion piece in The Culpeper Times.
Banks can also avoid taxation on the equipment holding their data, a lesson the City of Manassas learned the hard way. According to a statement on its website, the city will lose out on significant revenue it anticipated from a recently-built data center because its tenant is a bank. Under state code, banks are mostly exempt from paying business personal property taxes. They instead pay a bank franchise tax.
“This fundamentally shifts our expectations,” a Manassas City Council member said at a meeting in May, according to Potomac Local. “We’re talking about millions of dollars in tax money that now won’t be realized. It challenges everything we were led to believe about the economic promise of data centers.”
During a neighborhood meeting earlier this month to discuss AWS’s proposal for a third campus in Louisa, a community member asked if any of the entities storing data in the facilities would be tax exempt.
“I’m in land development. I can’t dictate who’s going to be occupying [the data center buildings]. I can get some information on that,” AWS representative Stephanie Moumen responded.
Williams’ talk of tax rebates comes as two of his allies on the board—Mineral District Supervisor Duane Adams and Mountain Road District Supervisor Tommy Barlow—face challengers in November’s election. Concerns about data center development are expected to play a key role in both campaigns.
Like Williams, Adams and Barlow have embraced data centers as a vehicle for economic development, a move that initially faced mild pushback. But AWS’s proposal for a third campus has shaken up the political landscape, prompting a growing number of residents to call out board members for luring the facilities to the county in the first place.
At the neighborhood meeting, as residents questioned why AWS had applied to build a sprawling data center campus on agriculturally zoned land near their homes, an AWS representative reminded the crowd that supervisors had targeted the area for tech sector development.
One attendee shouted that residents should vote the board out to cheers from others.
Board again forms committee to look into affordable housing trust
When it came to a discussion of affordable housing, it was déjà vu all over again for the board of supervisors on Monday night.
Just as they did a year ago, supervisors formed a committee to work with staff to investigate the possibility of setting up an affordable house trust fund, a tool they could use to expand the supply of dwellings available to firefighters, cops, teachers and other essential workers.
And Board Chair Duane Adams appointed Patrick Henry District Supervisor Fitzgerald Barnes and Green Springs District Supervisor Rachel Jones to serve on the panel.
The board discussed the same topic in June 2024, formed the same committee then didn’t discuss the idea again until earlier this month. It’s unclear if the panel ever met.
Barnes said at the board’s June 2 meeting that he wants the county to tap some of the millions of dollars it expects to receive from a pair Amazon Web Services data center campuses for affordable housing. As housing costs climb in the county, he’s said some people who grew up in the community and work here can’t afford to buy a home nor can they find an affordable rental unit.
Barnes’ comments came after affordable housing was left off a draft priority list for how the county might spend data center revenue. The list was crafted by Jones, Louisa District Supervisor Manning Woodward and county staff and shared at the meeting.
Jones made clear on Monday that she’s interested in exploring the idea of setting up a fund to benefit affordable housing. She’s also advocated for more support for the Fluvanna-Louisa Housing Foundation (FLHF), a nonprofit that’s building 25 affordable rental units for income-eligible elderly residents and essential workers between the towns of Louisa and Mineral.
It’s unclear when the committee will hold its first meeting. It’s expected to report back to the board in October.
According to a memo from FLHF Executive Director Kim Hyland, the main goal of an affordable housing trust is to “increase accessible and affordable housing opportunities for individuals and families with low and moderate incomes by providing a flexible funding mechanism.”
That goal can be accomplished in a variety of ways, including property acquisition for affordable housing; owner-occupied home repair; down payment assistance; rent and/or utility assistance; and re/development of affordable rentals.
At the local level, Hyland said affordable housing trusts are typically established through an ordinance, which defines the trust’s authority, governance structure, funding mechanisms and operational scope. Trusts typically have governing boards responsible for decision-making and oversight and can draw funding from a variety of local taxes and related revenue streams.
Hyland noted that trusts often partner with developers, nonprofit organizations or housing agencies to deploy funding.
Other business
Supes green-light FEMS grant app for more staff: Supervisors voted unanimously to give the Fire and EMS Department the go-ahead to apply for a Staffing for Adequate Fire and Emergency Response (SAFER) grant from the federal government. The grant would partially fund nine firefighter/medic positions for three years with the county footing the full bill after that.
The positions would cost just over a million dollars a year in salaries and benefits plus a $54,000 one-time payment for uniforms. The federal government would cover 75 percent of the “usual employee costs” for two years and 35 percent in year three.
Board oks tanker purchase: The board okayed the Bumpass Volunteer Fire Department’s purchase of a 3,000-gallon tanker truck. The vehicle is expected to cost about $426,000.
The department’s former tanker truck was totaled in an accident, for which it received $247,500 in insurance proceeds. The department intends to use that money plus a roughly $129,000 budget supplement from the county and $50,000 from its “fire programs” funding to purchase the new tanker.
Supes ok tweaks to LDR: After holding a public hearing but tabling action at their previous meeting, supervisors approved a range of tweaks to county code, covering everything from illumination standards for electronic signs to Lake Anna shoreline design standards.
Board tables action on airport commission bylaws: Supervisors tabled action on draft bylaws that would govern a five-member advisory commission tasked with helping guide future development at the Louisa County Airport. The decision to delay action came after Mineral District Supervisor Duane Adams suggested that commission members, who would be appointed by the board, serve staggered terms. The board is expected to take up the item again at its next meeting.
