Calhoun residents will have an opportunity to learn more about proposed data center development through two public information sessions being organized by the city.
The city has hired a data center advocate for $22,000 to coordinate the educational meetings and provide information on the potential impacts and benefits of digital infrastructure projects.
The first session is scheduled for Tuesday, November 17, at 7 p.m. An expert panel is expected to address questions involving economic development, water consumption, noise, employment opportunities and other concerns associated with data centers.
A second meeting is planned for December 9 and will focus on potential site development concepts and agreements intended to address concerns from surrounding property owners and communities.
The sessions come as public interest and questions about data center proposals continue to grow in the Calhoun area.
