Why We've Filed a Referendum

Obviously, it's fine to be wary of any development in your area. But it seems like there is a certain amount of irrational(?) fear of datacenters. And I really don't understand it. I saw a poll recently that people would rather live near a nuclear power plan than a datacenter. That's... their choice, of course, but doesn't seem logical to me. I have heard several "concern stories" about them on NPR recently. Maybe there is a political component to it. But I do worry there is some kind of manipulation being done.

Utah hasn’t voted for a Democrat president since Johnson. Reap what you sow.

It's funny to see the fast switch from "NIMBYs are killing affordable housing and progress" to no datacenters in my back yard.

A referendum for what? If you don't want that land being used for anything, just buy it yourself.
