Public Comments for: HB511 - Data centers; industrial zoning.
Last Name: Verschoor Organization: Southwestern Virginia Data Center Transparency Alliance Locality: Roanoke City

Botetourt County's Board of Supervisors went ahead and made a deal without consideration of the impacts on their constituents. (Or if they did we can't know because the deliberations are hidden behind NDA's.) Ideally a locality would be required to solicit and incorporate public input into their zoning changes, but the SWVA DCTA still supports this measure for requiring mitigation of impacts from data centers.
