Prime Storage, a subsidiary of Prime Group Holdings, applied to convert part of its self-storage building at 1155 Powers Ferry Place in Marietta, Georgia, into an 18 MW data center on about 11 acres. The Planning Commission recommended it 4-3 and the City Council approved the zoning on Aug 12, 2026 after a contentious meeting. City staff noted the zoning code has no data-center-specific standards.
