Who needs a nice woods when you can have a beautiful data center!!
agreed. city-county council needs to say no to projects that demilosh trees.
I’m trying to identify “the woods” that would be torn down? The aerial I’m looking at shows a tower, 2 buildings, and an open field.
maps.indy.gov
52.29 acres, most of it wooded.
City can’t tell every developer that they can’t cut down a tree. Or several. You should complain about sprawl generally though.
Yeah, let’s all stop using phones and the internet. I’ll bet they cut down trees for your house, but that is different…
“ATC also intends for the facility’s water system to be minimally intrusive, using what’s known as a closed-loop cooling system, allowing it to recycle its own supply rather than draw from the local water system.” Ditto, Metrobloks. That just won’t sink in to some heads though. These are NOT AI hyperscale monstrosities, and save the farmland! BTW this would be at least the 14th data center in Marion County, according to Data Center Map. (How we can see websites, like this one.) Some are 20+ years old. For example:
https://www.databank.com/landing-page/indianapolis-data-centers/
The Indiana Forest Alliance identifies this site as one of Indianapolis’s top 100 forests, which “offer the most benefits in terms of heat, flood, and pollution mitigation; wildlife habitat; and neighborhood quality of life.” To destroy that forest for a data center is environmentally unconscionable. https://indianaforestalliance.org/work/protection/forests-for-indy/
It oh wait for the anti data center people to chime in lol
Data centers often get their foot in the door and then expand. Residents should make sure the data center developers are offering guarantees around energy use, water consumption, water discharge and treatment, the use of diesel generators and possible expansion capacity BEFORE approving rezoning.
