Notes on the record

5-acre parcel (of the historic 99-acre Hungerford tract) fronting I-4 at Wymore Rd -- governing municipality is Eatonville, not Maitland. As of August 2026, HostDime's own marketing copy listed a mailing address of "1 Innovative Pl, Maitland, FL 32751" while an aggregator (baxtel) listed "1000 Wymore Rd, Eatonville, FL" for the same building, and both addresses were disputed/unverifiable via parcel search. The recorded street address, 1 Innovative Place, is the one HostDime's facility page and the PeeringDB registry give as of October 2026; it is not parcel-confirmed. 100,000 sq ft, 7-story building, 3 data-center floors, >1,000 racks. Groundbreaking May 2021; HostDime's own landing page and data-sheet page disagree on completion quarter (Q3 2026 vs Q2 2026) and the project has slipped repeatedly since an original ~2024 target; as of ClickOrlando's June 2026 report the facility was still not open. Investment is conflicting and stale: GrowthSpotter (Oct 2023) reported an original $35M budget grown to $58M actual (65.7% overrun); a separately-circulating $100M figure is single-sourced and unreconciled, so no investment figure is recorded. No capacity is disclosed. Distinct from HostDime's unrelated, already-operational 25,000 sq ft Tier III facility at 440 W Kennedy Blvd, Orlando. Eatonville Town Council (led by Councilwoman Wanda Randolph) has pushed a transparency measure over electricity/water use, noise, and appearance, and has assessed missed-deadline fines ($250-500/day); this intersects Florida SB 484 (effective July 1, 2026), which expands local authority over large-load customers and data-center water permits. As of 2026-09-10 the facility is still under construction. HostDime has requested multiple deadline extensions from the town of Eatonville (this is the third); September 2026 reporting says the facility could open as early as October 2026 pending final inspection.

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.

Power capacity in megawatts
Tax abatements or other public subsidy
Permanent jobs promised

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.
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.
