[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What is the deal with data centers?  Is anyone actually planning to allow them and not block them?  And where would they even go?  Any insights?[/quote]

Glass was the first person to support a moratorium. It was narrowly defeated by a 3-2 committee vote. Jawando conveniently recently proposed a more aggressive moratorium (which Mink has been all over).[/quote]

Jawando announced he was doing a bill in February. Glass introduced a bill in May. The bill that Glass introduced wouldn’t have affected Dickerson, while Jawando’s bill would.

The more important thing is that Friedson has opposed both bills during candidate forums. Friedson has received a lot of help from a super PAC funded by big tech and developers, so it’s not politically possible for him to be strong on data centers. We can’t have Friedson. It has to be Glass or Jawando. [/quote]

And both leapfrogged over Fani-Gonzalez and Balcombe's ZTA change.   They are just opportunists who want their names front and center.  They don't care about solutions.  Both have known about the data center for years and did NOTHING until an election year.

Yes, they will all allow the data center in Dickerson.  Balcombe was going after appropriate regulation.  But they will allow it.[/quote]
