Mayor Jones requests and acknowledges
data-center briefing materials
September 22, 2025 — Eastern Daylight Time
This public extract reproduces Mayor Phillip Jones’s short reply and the City Manager’s message quoted
within it. Archer says the materials are being provided at Jones’s request. Jones acknowledges them and
says he will review them that week.
Source: City public FOIA release G012027-100925. Reply: 000000144.eml, control 63. Original parent: 000000094.eml,
control 52, with Data Centers Combined Doc.pdf attached. The original parent is dated September 22 at 22:21:54 UTC. The
reply is dated September 23 at 00:15:01 UTC; both fall on September 22 in Newport News.
Publication treatment: contact signatures, addresses, phone numbers and email-address strings omitted. Public participants,
subject, substantive message bodies and attachment descriptions retained. The parent and reply are one correspondence
family, not independent corroboration. The complete originals are retained.
This establishes a requested briefing and acknowledgement, not that Jones read all attachments, directed a particular project,
requested a political payment or agreed to an exchange. Tiffany Conatser is copied on the parent message; that does not
establish authorship or approval by her.
