Residents urge scrutiny of data-center plans and planning commission process
Summary
During public comment residents raised concerns about a potential data center in the county and urged scrutiny of the Planning Commission; one resident also urged the county to consider hiring a consultant to advise on data centers.
Three residents spoke during the public-comment period. John Watt (identified as a Geary County resident) voiced concerns about a potential data center in Pottawatomie County. Nina Oakes, a county resident, said she had concerns with the Planning Commission and suggested the county consider hiring a consultant to address data-center issues. Steve Minton raised concerns about the video recording of commission meetings.
The commissioners did not take immediate formal action on the public comments during the June 8 meeting; the comments were recorded for the public record and may inform future planning-commission or county-administration responses.
