Agenda Item General Comment
Which agenda item or topic would you like to provide public comment on?*
I would like to oppose the planned data center in Arlington.We moved here in 2017 to provide a quieter life for our family,but Arlington insists
on adding large companies to the landscape,which means we are seeing more and more apartments being built.Our infrastructure is not set up
to accommodate such builds and increase in the population.Our small town feeling is changing drastically,and traffic has increased
exponentially.A data center will bring a new kind of threat to our small town living.Not only are they complete eyesores,but the drain on public
utilities including power and water is astronomical!Other towns that have allowed data centers to be built have suffered immensely and see their
water supply diminish,circadian rhythms disrupted,noise and environmental pollution increase drastically and I have not heard a single positive
thing come from a data center built in a small town.This is a permanent fixture that we do not need and we cannot afford to lose any more of
our beautiful town.
