The City Council has scheduled a Public Hearing on the issue of hyperscale data centers at 9:00 a.m., Tuesday, June 9 in the Council Chambers at City Hall.

The Public Hearing is on the data center ordinance now before the Council.

But we believe there is a real question as to whether Nebius should be subject to the ordinance or grandfathered in.

Please come early to the hearing. Bring a sign. Help us fill the room.

If you speak, tell the Council why it is wrong to grandfather a project about which almost nothing meaningful has been disclosed.

For months, the families who would live in the shadow of a 79-acre AI Mega Factory have been told the big decisions were already made. Tuesday, we get to talk back.

The AI Mega Factory would consume more than double the residential use of the entire city and draw enormous volumes of water — in a county that has seen drought in 17 of the last 20 years.

To keep it running, the plan calls for 125-foot transmission towers carrying 230,000 volts.

A foreign-owned corporation wants our power, our water, and our money. What it offers in return is a list of promises that grow thinner the closer you look.

PLEASE JOIN US Tuesday, June 9 at 9:00 am in the Council Chambers at City Hall.
