BluSky Modular AI Data Center: Updates Since the Meeting

It’s been nearly a week since the Mountain City Planning Commission voted to deny the rezoning request for the proposed BluSky AI data center. And while the company says it’s moving on from that particular location, there are still some questions worth asking.

This week, we take another look at the proposal and share what we’ve learned since the October 22 meeting.

We talk about the company’s background, water and electricity needs, potential tax revenue, and some interesting information found in public records. We also discuss questions about the Planning Commission meeting with only four members when state law calls for five.

We’re not here to tell anyone what to think. We just believe it’s important to ask questions, look at the facts and keep our neighbors informed.

Here’s our October 28 conversation on The Johnson County Line.

As always, we welcome your thoughts, questions and comments. There’s more to learn, and we’ll continue following the story.
