Living in Fauquier County, I've cherished the breathtaking landscapes and the close-knit community that has defined our home. However, a looming threat endangers these values. Daron Culbertson, a political Supervisor, is embroiled in plans to construct a personal data center in Remington, Virginia. This move not only compromises our local environment but potentially violates the Virginia legal code, showcasing a deep-rooted conflict of interest and potential corruption.

Fauquier County is known for its rural beauty, historic character, and close-knit communities. As our county faces proposals for large-scale data center development, residents deserve confidence that every land-use decision is made openly, fairly, and solely in the public interest.

Data centers can bring significant changes to a community, including increased demand for electricity, industrial infrastructure, traffic during construction, noise, and other environmental considerations. These are legitimate issues that deserve careful public review and informed debate.

Many residents have also raised questions regarding Supervisor Daron Culbertson's involvement in matters related to proposed data center development, including projects associated with property in which he and members of his family have been publicly identified as owners or participants in county application materials. Public records also show that proposals involving the Remington Innovation Campus have been submitted for county review.

Public confidence depends not only on compliance with the law but also on avoiding circumstances that create the appearance of a conflict between private interests and public responsibilities.

This petition does not ask citizens to prejudge the facts. Instead, it calls for:

A complete public review of any actual or potential conflicts of interest involving elected officials and data center projects.
Full transparency regarding financial interests, recusals, and public disclosures required under Virginia law.
Independent review by the appropriate authorities if questions regarding ethics or compliance arise.
Decision-making that places the health, safety, property values, and quality of life of Fauquier County residents first.
Our community deserves a government that is transparent, accountable, and worthy of the public's trust.

If you believe that all public officials should be held to the highest ethical standards and that decisions affecting Fauquier County should be made solely in the public interest, please sign this petition.

Together, we can protect the integrity of our government and the future of Fauquier County.
