LFU Revised Code Amendment

There are many residents up here north of the river that don't want these data centers, even the Commissioner of Platte county! All you have to do is go to Nextdoor site to get a feel for the citizens here. We want an upfront, transparent, citizen involved meetings before any of these data centers are proposed. You never asked us about it. We don't want any more! It is too much stress now
for the infrastructure and us residents will get hit with higher utility costs. Many of us are having a hard enough time trying to pay them now!
I don't care how "pretty" and camouflaged they are set up. They don't offer many long term jobs. These data centers are not worth all the stress and long term damages that will happen. Oh yeah this also drives up real estate costs. Have you tried to buy a few acres lately that isn't in the boondocks. Prices have gone from super high to insane. Just stop them before all hell breaks out in the Northland.

They are ugly, promote air pollution and noisy. No one wants trucks in their neighborhood.

1) How are all these data centers supposed to cool when the river runs low? The river is finite, are you going to let it boil or dry up? Can you see that there are too many data centers scheduled for our locale? Remember when the MO River got so low KC had to build new lower intakes?

2) Is there any documentation for the cleanup after the site is abandoned? How are you going to get any responsibilities from them especially when they claim bankruptcy?

3) What checks do you have on them on water usage? There are so many communities including us dependent upon the muddy Mo not to mention all the fish, wildlife and vegetation. With all the farmers toxic runoff will we have enough dilution to keep our waterways safe?

4) Can you keep the river and tributaries running at normal temperatures?

1) Each data center, or any other large energy consumption structure, needs it own dedicated energy supply.
2) No new data centers until we find out how they truly affect our citizens, associated costs, resources and environment. (at least 5 years)
3) Ideally a moratorium on data centers. Let other areas suffer the consequences. There hasn't been one built yet that didn't damage their citizens, environment or resources.
4) Drop the incentives including taxes. Our local governments can allocate the funds for best use. All they are offering is a bribe while they make millions and millions of dollars. Let the state of Missouri be the patsy and clean up the mess they leave behind.
