Opposition and litigation at this site

Nothing on record as of September 24, 2026. No lawsuit, organized opposition, or contested hearing over Connect Reno Data Center (Oppidan North Valleys) in Reno, Washoe County, Nevada 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.

Power and water

Truckee Meadows Regional Planning Agency characterises the Oppidan/Connect Reno project as evaporative-cooled, at roughly 1.6 acre-feet of water per MW, the highest per-MW water intensity of the three approved Reno projects it compares. Nevada LCB puts the site's expected use at approximately 2.6 million gallons a year.

Notes on the record

Approximately 61,600 sq ft single-storey building, ~53,000 sq ft of which is server space, with a generator yard sized for later phases. Applicant-stated staffing is 10-12 people on site at peak. Filed by Oppidan Investment Company; the operating brand on facility directories is Connect Data Centers, Oppidan's data center affiliate. Coordinate is an address-level geocode of 9630 N Virginia St, not a parcel-confirmed footprint.

What the record does not establish, and the document that would

In every fight on our tracker the decisive fact came out of a public records request. These are the requests for this site.

Tax abatements or other public subsidy
Permanent jobs promised
How the community has received it
Which utility serves it

Which document closes each gap

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.

Have one of these documents? Send it to us and we will add it to the record with attribution.
