Please leave your written comment below: Thank you for considering my feedback.All communities must balance the preservation of the uniqueness of their town with need to maintain economic development.Arlington is no different.This was exacerbated when Arlington accessed the Smokey Point area,an economic decision that was needed at the time.Now that we are included with the more industrial area of Smokey Point,we must continue to be vigilant to maintain the character of our town as a whole.People will continue to move into the area looking for good homes,good schools,and good neighbors. However,without thoughtful consideration about industrial development,including data centers,we will hit a tipping point where we are no longer a community of families but an area accessed to make non-residents even wealthier.Meanwhile,the local citizens will be left to deal with the additional water and energy strain put on our community.I am asking the council members,and citizens of Arlington,to strongly rule against any data centers in our area.
