mona residents push back on proposed $10 billion data center
Residents say they were blindsided by the approval process for the roughly 3-million-square-foot development and are demanding another opportunity to weigh in.
A proposed $10 billion data center is facing pushback in Mona, where some residents say they discovered the project after key county approvals were already in place.
Plans include approximately 3 million square feet of data center space. Residents are calling for a new public hearing and asking Juab County to reconsider the approvals, arguing they deserved an opportunity to raise concerns earlier.
County officials maintain that public notices met state requirements. Commissioners said they would check whether they can reverse the permit approval and reconsider the proposal.
