Families in Henrico's West End have come together to address concerns about proposed data center developments in nearby Goochland County, WRIC 8News reported.

The group, called Western Henrico Neighbors, consists mainly of mothers and parents who aim to inform residents in Henrico and surrounding areas about the potential impact of these projects.

Their efforts focus on raising awareness and organizing community response to the data center proposals just outside their county borders.

The group’s formation highlights local engagement on developments that may affect the broader region, including parts of Richmond's metropolitan area.
