Fund the Fight – Stop the BPP Blueprint Data Center

Why We’re Raising Funds
Our community is standing up to protect land in Taylor, Texas that was legally deeded for parkland use. Despite this restriction, BPP Blueprint, a data center developer, purchased the property and attempted to move forward with industrial construction.

In response, five Taylor residents filed a lawsuit to enforce the deed restrictions and stop this development. They’ve already covered legal fees and court costs out of their own pockets. Now, as the fight moves to a higher court, they need our help. This isn’t just about one neighborhood. It’s about holding corporations accountable, honoring legal deeds, and protecting Taylor’s future.

Where the Case Stands
To enforce the deed and stop industrial development, five Taylor residents filed suit against BPP. The case was heard in Williamson County District Court in September 2025.

The judge dismissed the case — but did not rule on the deed itself. The restrictive covenant — the central legal issue — was never decided.

The plaintiffs filed an appeal, and the case has now been transferred to the Texas Fifteenth Court of Appeals. That appeal allows for a full review of whether the land can legally be used for anything other than parkland.

Right now, the community is waiting for the court’s next steps. This lawsuit remains focused on one simple goal: Honor the deed. Protect the neighborhood. Keep this land a park for generations to come.

This case is not against the City Council. It is about enforcing the law and honoring the deed.

How Your Donation Helps
Every dollar raised will go directly to:

Legal representation and attorney fees for the appeal
Court filings and associated costs
Expert support to strengthen the case

The plaintiffs are not asking for damages. They are simply fighting to protect this land for its intended use: as a park for the people of Taylor.

Note on the beneficiary: The listed beneficiary, Chris Osborn, is the attorney handling this case. He has set up a dedicated account specifically for the plaintiffs, and all funds raised through this campaign will go directly into that account for legal fees related to the case.

Why It Matters
This fight is bigger than one lawsuit. It’s about ensuring that:

Deed restrictions are respected.
Developers are held accountable.
Land meant for public parks isn’t turned into industrial projects.
Our community has deep roots here. Families grew up playing on this land, and we’re fighting to make sure future generations can do the same.

Stand with us. Stand for parkland. Stand up for Taylor.
