Trenton Residents Seek Moratorium on Prologis Data Center Construction Amid Transparency Concerns
DATA AND AI INFRASTRUCTURE
Trenton residents, led by Barry Blankenship, are demanding a moratorium on a data center project by Prologis after construction began without adequate community input or environmental studies. The facility, encompassing 1 million square feet on a 141-acre site purchased for $7.7 million, has raised concerns regarding environmental impact, increased utility costs, and community notification.
Despite city assurances, residents claim that no thorough studies have been conducted. The project is expected to create 100-150 jobs but has faced significant local opposition.
