After the Vote: What Data Center Ballot Measures Tell Us About Communities and Growth

As data center development accelerates across the country, communities are weighing economic opportunity against concerns about energy, water, infrastructure and local impact. This November, voters in communities across the country are being asked to weigh in directly on these decisions.

Join The Policy Circle for a timely post-election conversation with a Ballotpedia expert and Tracey Hyatt Bosman, a site-selection and economic development expert, moderated by Rebecca Painter. Together, they’ll explore what voters decided, why data centers are becoming a growing local issue, and what these decisions mean for communities facing similar proposals.

Learn what’s at stake, what questions citizens should be asking, and how to engage in decisions shaping their communities.
