5.AUDIENCE COMMENT
Mayor Maddasion moved audience comment to the end of the meeting.
Residents addressed the Council regarding the proposed QTS data center, expressing concerns about potential impacts on water usage, energy demand, air quality, noise, traffic, farmland preservation, property values, and overall quality of life. Several speakers requested additional time for public review, independent studies, greater transparency, and consideration of a moratorium before any approvals move forward. Many also urged the City to seek expert analysis, strengthen protections for residents, and ensure meaningful public involvement throughout the process.
Attorney O'Connell provided an update on the draft data center ordinance, stating that it was being developed to address issues such as water use, electrical demand, road impacts, noise, and light pollution. He explained that the ordinance would first be reviewed by the Plan Commission at a public meeting, followed by a public hearing before City Council consideration. O'Connell also clarified that community benefit provisions and financial assurances would typically be addressed through a development agreement rather than a zoning ordinance and noted that the Council could choose to pursue independent studies, although such studies are not required under current City code.
Additional public comments focused on concerns regarding the prior moratorium ordinance process, with Attorney O'Connell accepting responsibility for a drafting error related to the 120-day timeframe and clarifying that the discrepancy was unintentional. Several residents also raised questions regarding site selection, enforcement of future development requirements, and survey markers placed near the proposed development area, though some questions could not be addressed because they were not on the meeting agenda.
