USU talk on data centers and Utah's land, water and energy set for Nov. 5
The public conversation at the Whittier Center overlaps with the county's hearing on data-center rules.
LOGAN - Utah State University hosts a public conversation on data centers from 5 to 6:30 p.m. Thursday, Nov. 5, at the Whittier Center, 290 N. 400 East, according to the university's November arts and sciences preview.
The event is the fall installment of CANRI's "Growth & Balance" series. The university says it will look at what data centers are used for and how they are "impacting Utah's land, water, and energy." The listing invites people to share it with friends and family.
Speakers and any cost or registration had not been posted as of publication.
The same evening, the Cache County Planning Commission holds a public hearing at 5:35 p.m. or shortly after on a proposed data-center code amendment, according to its Nov. 5 agenda. That meeting is in the Historic Courthouse council chambers, 199 N. Main St. The two events overlap. Read our story on the hearing.
Why this matters
Cache County is considering a new code chapter with development standards for data centers, and residents can learn about the issue at the USU talk or speak at the county's public hearing that night. Both events take place in Logan.
