Grading and site prep has already begun for three data center buildings in Daleville that will house and cool the chips used by Google to power its A-I services – but a property owner a half mile from the Greenfield campus hopes to stop that construction in its tracks during a court hearing now scheduled for next Tuesday. In Botetourt County Circuit Court the plaintiff and property owner Robert Dallas will make his case with attorneys from Fishwick & Associates, Dooley Law and Munro Byrd that the Botetourt County Board of Supervisors used a non-disclosure agreement signed with Google to approve an agreement without letting the public have their say. Those involved in the approval process including the Roanoke Regional Partnership claim that using an NDA was essential to landing Google. More from WFIR’s Gene Marrano:

Hillsville mayor reelected after tough campaign

Hillsville Mayor Greg Crowder won reelection by a substantial margin in the November 3, 2026, election. Incumbent Town Councilors Greg Yonce representing the Laurel Fork Ward and Barry Jessup of the Sulphur Springs Ward ran unopposed and also retained their seats on council. Mayor Crowder garnered 535 votes out of 949 ballots cast, while challenger Katie Horton received 315 votes and Andy Kaufman had 83. Sixteen ballots were cast for write-in candidates. “This was a really tough election,” said Crowder. “It was a brutal nonstop attack with half-truths, innuendos and borderline slander towards me and my family. There’s people that have been in politics their whole life and never seen nothing like it.” “I ran against former Mayor Bill Tate, who was a very honorable candidate and is actually a very good friend of mine now,” Crowder continued. “And I ran against Mrs. Taylor, the former mayor’s wife, and we basically ran on issues. We were able to shake hands after the election and I was hoping it would be the same with this race but I don’t think it’s going to be.” Greg Crowder was first elected in 2012. This election victory ushers in his 9th term as Mayor
