Project Overview

The site, property, entities, and currently documented project facts.

Representative image. Not an official rendering or photograph of Project Mustang.

Taylor Technology Campus, formerly Project Mustang, is a proposed large-scale data-center and on-site power-generation development east of Taylor, Texas.

This site tracks the project through property records, government records, regulatory filings, technical analysis, and public-information requests. Facts are separated from public claims, reasonable inferences, and unresolved questions.

Naming convention: ProjectMustangTX.org keeps “Project Mustang” as the name of this independent investigation and historical archive. Current references use Taylor Technology Campus for the development and Taylor Technology Campus LLC for the legal Developer identified in the October development agreement. Historical records retain the names used when they were created.

Combined WCAD assessed parcel area: 664.572 acres.

The October 2026 development agreement describes the Property as approximately 664.39 acres. Both figures are retained because they come from different source descriptions rather than silently treating one as an error.

Who’s Involved

Current records distinguish the project name, the legal Developer, development partners, historical project entities, and recorded landowners. These names should not be treated as interchangeable unless a source establishes the relationship.

Recorded landowner

NMCV Taylor Property Investors LLC

Confirmed owner of the 486.392-acre tract through recorded property instruments.

Confirmed
October 2026 development agreement

Taylor Technology Campus LLC

The October development agreement expressly defines Taylor Technology Campus LLC as the “Developer,” together with permitted successors and assigns. The agreement says a Developer affiliate is under contract to purchase the approximately 664.39-acre property, with the purchase contracts to be assigned to the Developer before closing.

Legal Developer

Current Regulatory Status

Last verified October 9, 2026

October 8 Council action: Taylor City Council voted unanimously to approve the development agreement for Taylor Technology Campus and authorize execution. The agreement establishes development standards, community-investment obligations, utility provisions, and a process leading to future voluntary annexation. The agenda-packet agreement form defines Taylor Technology Campus LLC as Developer.

The agreement requires the Developer to submit a complete preliminary-plat application by April 8, 2027. Within seven days after City approval or conditional approval of that preliminary plat, the Developer must file a voluntary annexation petition. ProjectMustangTX.org has not yet archived a fully executed signature copy or an annexation ordinance, so the property is not described here as already annexed.

October 2026 Agreement Snapshot

Agreement term

20 years + possible 15-year extension

The agreement’s initial term runs for 20 years from its Effective Date. It may be extended another 15 years only by mutual written agreement and City Council approval.

Agreement term
Agreement obligations

$28.2 million in defined community investments

The agreement contains milestone-linked quality-of-life, Taylor ISD, scholarship, workforce-development and nonprofit commitments totaling approximately $28.2 million. These are contractual commitments tied to specified triggers, not funds already paid.

Agreement obligation
Developer / RCLCO projection

$1.38 billion projected City gross tax revenue

Developer presentation materials project approximately $1.38 billion in City gross tax revenue from 2027–2046. This is a forecast/model result, not a guaranteed or independently established outcome.

Projection
City / developer representation

No tax abatement requested with this development-agreement request

City presentation materials state that no tax abatement was requested with this development-agreement approval request. This statement should not be generalized to every possible future incentive or agreement without separate evidence.

Publicly stated
Agreement legal effect

Agreement treated as the “first permit” for Chapter 245 purposes

Section 5.2 states that the agreement is the “first permit” in the series of permits for the project and recognizes vested authority to develop in accordance with the agreement and Development Standards.

Agreement term
Administrative review

Minor modifications and plat approvals may be handled administratively

The agreement authorizes the Development Review Committee to approve defined Minor Modifications and delegates plat approval/conditional approval/denial authority to the City Manager, subject to agreement limits and appeal provisions.

Current Agreement & Historical Technical Concept

Last verified October 9, 2026

The October development agreement is now the most current City-negotiated framework. The August Employment Center Plan and August 18 hearing remain important historical evidence of the project’s technical concept, but figures from that withdrawn application are not automatically current contractual limits.

August 2026 historical proposal / disclosure

Approximately 1,040 MW of on-site generation

Project representatives described roughly 1,040 MW of on-site natural-gas generation supporting approximately 700 MW of data-center load, with initial operation potentially isolated from the electric grid.

Publicly stated at hearing
August 2026 historical proposal / disclosure

84–112 gas-fired generating units

The submitted equipment schedule lists 84 to 112 gas-fired units at 12.5 MW each. If every listed unit were installed, that schedule implies approximately 1.05–1.40 GW of aggregate nameplate capacity, which is broader than the approximately 1,040-MW hearing figure.

Proposal + calculation
August 2026 historical proposal / disclosure

125-foot gas stacks and extensive support infrastructure

The concept includes gas-generation yards, stacks up to approximately 125 feet, diesel backup and black-start generation, BESS, substations, gas infrastructure, urea/fuel-related storage, and cooling/radiator systems.

Proposed / documented
Important distinction: the current records establish what is being proposed and discussed. Exact generator technology, final unit count, stack coordinates, emissions, operating schedules, final interconnection design, and many site-specific engineering details remain unresolved.

County Transportation Coordination

Williamson County’s August 18 public-records production confirms that Kimley-Horn was coordinating with County infrastructure staff over a future arterial alignment by May 2026. The records document a June 22 meeting, a July 8 County engineering request for a detailed 136-foot ROW resubmittal, and a July 22 revised exhibit showing two potential future County road paths.
