What this document is

These are the official minutes of the Chesterfield County Board of Supervisors meeting held on August 27, 2025.

Why it matters

The minutes contain one of the strongest county-origin statements identifying the entities behind several local code names. The relevant passage records an announcement that Google was the entity behind Project Peanut and that Project Loch (Aeris) and Project Skye (Skyward) were also Google.

What the document says

The minutes cover the full Board meeting, but for Project Loch the critical line is the recorded announcement attributed to Amber Tillman, identified as head of Google Data Center for Public Affairs of North America. In archive terms, that makes this document a county meeting record of a public identity statement, not merely a private inference or press report.

Limits of the document

The minutes do not restate the full permitting details of Project Loch, nor do they resolve open environmental-review issues. Their main value is that they tie the county code name Aeris to Google in the official county record.
