The City sold its citizens out again, supporting the project even before it was ever filed.
Everybody wants a connected smartphone and gigs of data available but not the data centers that make it possible.
Just like warehouses and light manufacturing, these are necessary to the functioning of a modern economy and they fit best in “industrial” space.

IBJ needs to stop mischaracterizing Ms. Weerts Hall as “a city contractor”.
Her function is basically an administrative law judge interpreting a long, convoluted, and sometimes contradictory zoning code (nearly 600 pages worth) and applying it in a multitude of specific situations. She is darned good at it.
She especially forces NIMBYs to make good, serious, and factual legal arguments beyond “we don’t want that here because we don’t want that here”; when they do, she sometimes agrees and overrules staff recommendations.
That’s also true when staff overreaches with objections to a project…if petitioners make an honest effort and a strong case, she’ll overrule staff. A good example is the gas station at Shadeland and Washington, possibly the oldest auto-oriented suburban spot in town… where staff wanted to enforce the Transit Overlay District strictly.
The anti data center crowd is a well funded machine. Do not think they are just a group of local residents
I watched online and the crowd was respectful until the ruling then it was a loud rude showing from the people opposed to the project. I think the process is set up in a fair way and it will be interesting to watch. I guess I couldn’t read this story from my smartphone without a data center or catch my uber for that matter. And the tax revenue will be helpful to the city.
