Our organizations are growing increasingly concerned with the speed at which data centers are rapidly developing all over Oregon and across the United States, and especially concerned with the potential for a data center here in west Eugene. Data centers have notable “offensive external impacts” on the surrounding communities, including air, water, and noise pollution concerns, in addition to dramatically increasing the load on the electrical systems leading to rate increases for residents and businesses.
We are asking our community to sign their opposition to Zone Verification for the former Hynix Superconductor Campus.
