Impact analysis
The facility could bring in tax revenue, but it might also drive up local utility costs if the grid needs major upgrades to handle the extra load.
The tech developers and the mining company stand to gain the most from the cheap land and access to the power grid.
Local residents are the ones losing out, as they face potential noise pollution, grid instability, and a shift in the rural character of their neighborhood.
