The Urbana City Council has expressed interest in a potential data center development near the city, following concerns raised by local resident Brad Winner about transparency. The council recently approved a new Community Reinvestment Area (CRA 2), which has led to discussions about large-scale projects and their implications for the community. While no site plans have been submitted, property acquisitions in the area by Thor Equities and another LLC have heightened local interest and concern regarding the impact of such developments.
