Data Centres: Boom and Backlash: Amazon trades Ashburn site for housingBackground
The Loudoun County Board of Supervisors is the elected legislative and policy-setting body for Loudoun County, Virginia. Eight supervisors represent districts and an at-large chair represents the county as a whole. Together they set county policy, oversee general government operations and appropriate funds for departments and agencies.
In October 2026, the board voted to fast-track rezoning of Amazon's former George Washington University campus for mixed-use development including housing. Amazon had dropped four planned data-centre buildings at the site. The board also considered a proposed 12-month pause on some data-centre and substation applications, but deferred that item to 17 November. The fast-track vote changed the rezoning timetable; it did not itself grant final planning approval.
