Stop the Eden Landing Data Center — Protect Hayward's Water, Power, and Air
Dear Hayward Residents,
A massive data center is being built at 26062 Eden Landing Road — 310,000 square feet, 76.6 megawatts of capacity (enough to power roughly 76,000 homes), and 28 diesel backup generators, sited close to our neighborhoods and the Eden Landing shoreline.
Here's the part that should concern everyone: this project was approved by the Planning Commission in 2025 without a single City Council vote, through a zoning loophole. The City has since admitted the process was flawed and rewrote its own rules so that any future data center over 50 MW must go before the elected Council. SVY03A is well over that threshold — but it already got through under the old rules.
We're asking the City Council, the California Energy Commission, and State Senator Aisha Wahab to require a full environmental review, a public Council hearing, and real transparency about the water and power this facility will use — before any further permits or expansions are approved.
It takes 30 seconds to add your name:
We plan to deliver these signatures in person at the next City Council meeting and file them with the California Energy Commission. If you know neighbors who'd want to sign, please forward this email or share the link directly — every signature helps.
Thanks for standing up for our community,
Valerie Cooper, Sheila Cho, Veronica Reyes (coordinators of)
