Opposed to further developments of data centers

OPINION - I am a resident in Mesa and have been hearing more and more about new data centers moving in and being built and utility rates continuing to increase.

The additional data centers will have a huge draw on our power and water supply and will not be bringing in the jobs and income to the community infrastructure.

These data centers are not helpful to our community in any way in my opinion, but I am still looking out for any reasons to be supportive of these new businesses.

From everything I have learned, researched and discussed so far, I am vehemently opposed to further developments of data centers.

What are the channels that we can use to oppose or address or voice our opinion and concerns on this matter?

How can we best fight this development?
