Madisonville residents upset at city’s handling of proposed data center rules
Officials held an hour-long meeting last week to discuss the ordinance, but left only 10 minutes for public comment. Residents in Madisonville, Kentucky are expressing dissatisfaction with the city's handling of proposed rules for building data centers. The draft ordinance, which would set new rules for how the facilities can be built, was discussed at a meeting that lasted an hour and included only 10 minutes of public comment. Some residents argue that the city is moving too fast and not giving people enough time to understand what is happening. City officials argue that a moratorium could signal Madisonville isn't open to new technology or economic development. The ordinance has not been adopted and can still be revised. Additional discussions are planned for future meetings before any vote is taken.
