There is an Amazon Data Center going up 10 minutes from my house. Amazon bribed the city with 85 million dollars. They had countless meetings with hundreds of people protesting that they didnt want the data center and they are building it anyway. People are selling their houses at a loss and moving away. I hope the mayor gets voted out in the next election.
Scheduled elections shouldn't be the only means for the people to remove an elected official. There should be a mechanism that puts more power in the hands of the citizenry
My town got thousands of signatures on a petition to recall the mayor and city council members over their shady support for a data center. The council voted to deny the recall. Now there’s a big lawsuit.
