Several area residents have signed up to speak at Monday's Cherryvale City Council Meeting regarding data centers.
During the public forum time, Tyler Edwards, Jonathan Rozell, Theresa Cameron, Jennifer Williams, England Porter and Ryan York plan to address the council regarding data centers and economic development. The public comment period will be limited to 30 minutes and each individual is limited to five minutes with no time extension permitted. Priority will also be given to individuals residing within the city limits of Cherryvale.
At a meeting a month ago, information was shared regarding companies interested in building a data center that could use up to 6 million gallons of water a day. Members of the community have recently organized several meetings to oppose a potential data center.
In other business, there will be a public hearing the the vacation of West 2nd Street, and information shared regarding a CDBG grant agreement. The city will also consider a bid for HVAC improvements at the fire department and consider an application for a street closing for the Library's Book 'n' Treat event on Halloween in place of Trunk or Treat which will not be held this year.
The meeting on Monday the 19th is open to the public and begins at 6 p.m. at the Cherryvale City Hall.
