Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of October 28, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over AWS New Albany (2550 Beech Road) in New Albany, Licking County, Ohio appears in the sources this registry tracks. That is an absence in our sources rather than a finding that none exists, and local opposition often predates any coverage a national dataset would pick up.
If you live near this site and something is happening that this page does not show, that is worth telling us. Send us the document and it goes in the record with the source attached. For sites where opposition is already established, see every contested site we track.
Notes on the record
Operational AWS data center campus on a parcel of about 67 acres (Licking County Auditor: 67.27 tax acres, 66.5 GIS acres) owned by Vadata Inc at 2550 Beech Rd NW, part of Amazon's original New Albany (AWS US-East-2) footprint, predating and physically distinct from the ~458-acre Beech/Miller five-building expansion (under construction, ~2.4 km north), which as of July 2026 is tracked separately as AWS New Albany (Beech/Miller Road Campus). Licking County Auditor land-use class 305 ('Research/Chemical Labs' = built industrial, vs class 300 'Industrial Vacant Land' on the neighboring expansion parcels); owner Vadata Inc (Amazon's data-center subsidiary). Data-center aggregators list the building as '2570 Beech Road' / 'Park Two' (a prior Compute Atlas note called it 'Ridge Two'), ~459,000 sq ft, operational since ~2017, the building code-name and year rest on aggregator data, not a primary filing. As of October 2026, OpenStreetMap maps five AWS data-center buildings (CMH50, CMH53, CMH56, CMH59 and CMH62) inside this parcel; the ~459,000 sq ft aggregator figure describes a single building, so it is not the parcel total. No site-specific IT-load MW is disclosed. Coordinates are the Licking County Auditor parcel centroid. Distinct from tracked AWS Cosgray Road Campus and AWS Scioto Darby Campus (Hilliard, Franklin County).
What the record does not establish, and the document that would

- Power capacity in megawatts
- Cooling method and water use
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- Permanent jobs promised
- How the community has received it
- Which utility serves it
Which document closes each gap
- Power capacity in megawatts
- The utility's large load service agreement, the interconnection request in the grid operator's queue, or the electrical site plan in the permit file.
- Cooling method and water use
- The water service agreement, any groundwater appropriation permit, and the mechanical narrative in the site plan.
- Tax abatements or other public subsidy
- The abatement, PILOT, or development agreement approved by the county, city, or development authority, and the state's data center sales tax exemption certificate if one was issued.
- Permanent jobs promised
- The economic development application or incentive agreement, which usually states a job commitment and a clawback.
- How the community has received it
- Planning commission and governing body minutes, public comment records, and any petition or lawsuit filed in the county.
- Which utility serves it
- The electric service agreement or the utility's filing with the state public utility commission.
