Warrick County Commissioners will consider an ordinance Monday afternoon on data center guidelines. WNIN’s John Gibson has details:
The Warrick Area Plan Commission forwarded the proposed ordinance last week with an unfavorable recommendation, five-to-two.
County Commission President Sarah Millis-Seaton expressed her disappointment in that vote, saying numerous stakeholders worked diligently to develop the ordinance.
She says it’s designed to protect Warrick County residents and establish responsible guidelines for potential data centers.
She also says transparency has been a priority throughout the process but during the Area Plan meeting, numerous residents complained that the process has lacked transparency.
The ordinance is scheduled to go before County Commissioners during a meeting Monday at the Friedman Park Event Center.
It begins at 4 p.m.
