From the meeting
At the October 26, 2026 public hearing, the commission heard extensive testimony on the proposed county zoning ordinance and draft map, with many speakers focused on limiting data centers and protecting agricultural land. Comments referenced the first data center announced in December 2025, a second proposal, and an effective date of January 1, 2027 that speakers wanted for the ordinance. No final vote was recorded in this document; the ordinance was still under review.

Questions about this project
What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
When will Wythe County issue an RFP for this project?
Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Wythe County's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
