Сообщено ИИ
Residents of Augusta Charter Township, Michigan, have gathered signatures for a 2026 ballot initiative to overturn a rezoning approval for a proposed data center on 822 acres of farmland. The effort pits local opponents concerned about noise, pollution, and utility costs against township officials eyeing millions in tax revenue. The grassroots campaign highlights growing national resistance to such facilities amid environmental concerns.
