Impact analysis
Large data centers could strain water and electric infrastructure and shift infrastructure costs onto residents, but could also bring tax base.
Residents gain if the county gets clear rules before any big facility applies.
Data center developers face delay and stricter rules, but no identified group is harmed otherwise.
