Community sentiment

Contested

Social Circle City Council unanimously approved a special-use permit for SC Infrastructure LLC (June 2025). A jurisdictional dispute exists — Newton County does not recognize the 2008 annexation of the site into Social Circle. Newton County enacted a 30-day moratorium on new data-center applications (April 2026); Social Circle and Covington enacted their own moratoriums. The project is "projected eventually to employ 200 people" (developer — a projection). No lawsuit against this specific project.
