Opposition and litigation at this site
Nothing on record as of September 10, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Connect Albuquerque (Westpointe 40) in Albuquerque, Bernalillo County, New Mexico 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
New facility, not previously on the NM roster. Oppidan Investment Company (Connect Data Centers division) acquired the Westpointe 40 Business Park site from Titan Development in September 2024; general contractor PARIC Corporation targeted winter 2025 completion. Server Country's most recent record review (2026-07-18) lists status as operational colocation. No primary operator press release or City of Albuquerque permit record was directly fetched this run (only aggregator sites, both cited); a direct primary source would strengthen confidence above 'reported'. Coordinates are a street-level OpenStreetMap geocode of Daytona Road NW, not a confirmed parcel centroid -- precision is approximate. Capacity (10MW) and investment ($80M) figures are sourced from Server Country only and are unconfirmed against a second independent source; treat as reported, not confirmed.
What the record does not establish, and the document that would

- 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
- 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.
