DATA AND AI INFRASTRUCTURE
Lyon Township residents expressed strong opposition at a Planning Commission meeting regarding a proposed 1.8-million-square-foot data center, Project Flex, planned for 172 acres between South Hill and Milford Roads. Concerns were raised about noise, water quality, air pollution, and energy reliability, prompting calls for more public notification and a potential moratorium on developments. The project, which received conditional approval, is pending an independent review of a sound study and an energy audit.
