Impact analysis
The big question is whether taxpayers or the data center company foot the bill for new roads, water, power, and other infrastructure.
A data center developer and possibly local contractors or the tax base could benefit if the project brings investment and jobs.
Residents could be on the hook for infrastructure costs or face land-use and utility impacts if the ordinance is too loose.
