Summary

On 18 August 2026 the Statesboro City Council, Georgia, approved 3-2 application RZ 26-07-05, in which 4AM Development, LLC asked to rezone one 26.49-acre parcel at 6539 Burkhalter Road from R-4 to O (Office and Business District) for a proposed data center; the applicant's conceptual plan shows an approximately 230,000 sq ft two-story facility. This dated city record names the project, its developer and its site, which supports announced status. A rezoning is not consent for the data-centre development itself: the city's data-center ordinance still requires a Special Use Permit approved by the council before any building permit, and none had been considered by 20 October 2026, so no permitted status or physical work is asserted. evidence

The latest posted council agenda (20 October 2026) contains two Special Use Permit applications for other properties and no data-center, Burkhalter Road data-center or 4AM Development item. Together with the action agendas and minutes of 1 September, 15 September and 6 October 2026 (also captured), it shows that no Special Use Permit for the Burkhalter Road data center had come before the council by 20 October 2026. evidence

The county address layer returns exactly one point for 6539 BURKHALTER RD (status ACTIVE, city STATESBORO, modified 2026-01-23) at (-81.7539024, 32.3995916) in WGS84. The point lies inside parcel polygon PIN 7887-33-7607 and inside the 2022 parcel 108 000001 000. evidence

The 2022 county parcel table (service description: managed by Bulloch Tax Assessors, Bulloch GIS 2022) lists parcel 108 000001 000 (PIN 7887-44-0136) at 6539 BURKHALTER RD, 50 acres, county zoning R-40/AG-5. Its polygon (50.63 geodesic acres) is now split into PIN 7887-33-7607 (27.05 acres, containing the address point) and PIN 7887-44-4600 (23.76 acres). Only parcel, PIN, address, acreage and zoning fields were requested; owner fields were not. evidence

The city zoning layer (described by the service as the definitive zoning layer) returns, at the parcel centroid, polygon OBJECTID_1 31098 with feature code S(O), the Statesboro Office district. Its 27.99 geodesic acres contain 99.99% of parcel PIN 7887-33-7607, and 96.7% of the zoning polygon lies inside the parcel (the remainder follows the road frontage). The council minutes record the parcel as R-4 before the 18 August 2026 approval, so the layer depicts the approved O zoning. evidence

Precision scope: Centroid of the current Bulloch County parcel polygon PIN 7887-33-7607 (27.05 geodesic acres, about 438 by 580 m) that contains the county 9-1-1 point for 6539 Burkhalter Rd, the 26.49-acre parcel rezoned for the proposed data center. It locates the project parcel, not the conceptual building, a surveyed boundary or the extent of any works.
Horizontal uncertainty: Not reported
The county publishes no positional accuracy for its parcels; the centroid represents a 27-acre parcel about 438 by 580 m, and the planned building position within it is not published.
Geometry evidence: 488f29eb

A locator places the site on the map. It is not a building footprint, a construction extent or a surveyed boundary unless the use scope is an official boundary, and even then it is a parcel or permit boundary.
