1 00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:13,200 To the flag of the United States of America and to the republic it stands 2 00:00:09,760 --> 00:00:18,000 one nation under God indivisible with liberty and justice for all. If you will 3 00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:21,600 please remain Lord we thank you for this day and all 4 00:00:19,359 --> 00:00:25,600 the blessings you give us this meeting and guiding decisions made. We thank you 5 00:00:23,920 --> 00:00:30,519 so much for your mercy, your grace and your love. Jesus name I ask it. Thank 6 00:00:27,519 --> 00:00:30,519 you. 7 00:00:44,320 --> 00:00:52,079 It is uh 5:00 p.m. We will call the meeting to order. 8 00:00:49,440 --> 00:00:54,640 We'll start off the roll call. District one here. 9 00:00:53,199 --> 00:00:57,760 » District two here. >> District three here. 10 00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:00,399 » District four here. All >> present. 11 00:01:00,800 --> 00:01:09,840 Approve on the nice agenda. I'll make a motion. Second motion by Wayne, second 12 00:01:06,080 --> 00:01:14,080 by Tom. Any discussion? All in favor? 13 00:01:10,960 --> 00:01:17,840 » I posted opposed. 14 00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:22,119 Approval of the minutes for the August 25th, 2026 meeting. 15 00:01:22,560 --> 00:01:31,280 » Motion. Second. Motion made by Dane. Second by 16 00:01:27,600 --> 00:01:33,360 Wayne. Any discussion? All in favor? 17 00:01:32,400 --> 00:01:39,079 » I. >> Any opposed? 18 00:01:35,759 --> 00:01:39,079 None opposed. 19 00:01:39,680 --> 00:01:47,439 We will now open the uh pull up the constituent comments. We've had uh three 20 00:01:45,119 --> 00:01:51,600 signed to speak this evening. Miss George Gish. 21 00:01:49,200 --> 00:01:58,040 » You don't know who that is. Judy. >> Is that Judy? Did he? I never seen any 22 00:01:53,840 --> 00:01:58,040 real name. Uhoh. 23 00:02:06,000 --> 00:02:10,600 » I'm gonna make y'all come around here. Look at me. 24 00:02:13,520 --> 00:02:19,560 » What are you going to stop? >> I don't know yet. You just have to wait 25 00:02:16,400 --> 00:02:19,560 and see. 26 00:02:22,160 --> 00:02:27,239 » I know. Um, 27 00:02:27,360 --> 00:02:32,879 » you all know why we're here. I just want to play something for you. 28 00:02:31,040 --> 00:02:37,519 » Covering the data center debate in Metro Detroit for nearly a year now, but there 29 00:02:35,360 --> 00:02:41,360 are still few local examples of what it's like when they're up and running. 30 00:02:39,599 --> 00:02:46,160 One of the most common areas of concern I hear about is the noise that they 31 00:02:43,280 --> 00:02:49,440 could admit. But one community in southwestern Michigan has been 32 00:02:47,760 --> 00:02:54,239 experiencing the reality of a data center next door for a couple of years 33 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:57,480 now. and they say that sound has changed their lives. 34 00:02:58,640 --> 00:03:03,599 » What would you say to people who've never experienced this for themselves? 35 00:03:01,440 --> 00:03:08,159 » So, it's like someone set up a vacuum like in your living room and the vacuum 36 00:03:06,239 --> 00:03:12,239 is just it that thing needs to be cleaned. Like it is the filter is 37 00:03:09,840 --> 00:03:19,760 clogged up so it's a high pitch whining and they just left it on and walked out. 38 00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:24,959 You've seen movies and stuff where they have somebody in a cell torture with a 39 00:03:23,200 --> 00:03:29,000 sound [clears throat] and that's basically what it is. 40 00:03:29,120 --> 00:03:36,080 Venuela and Marjorie Billy Finn are neighbors who all live directly across 41 00:03:33,599 --> 00:03:40,879 the street from a data center in Dwajek, Michigan. The data center is known by 42 00:03:38,159 --> 00:03:47,760 residents as Hyperscale Data. It is owned by Alliance Cloud Services LLC, a 43 00:03:44,080 --> 00:03:51,040 company based in Las Vegas, Nevada. They tell me that for the past couple of 44 00:03:49,360 --> 00:03:56,879 years, it has been emitting a high-pitched sound 24 hours a day, 7 45 00:03:54,400 --> 00:04:02,239 days a week. But it wasn't always like this. Archery tells me the house has 46 00:03:59,280 --> 00:04:07,439 been in her family for nearly 100 years. >> I love this house because it has so much 47 00:04:04,799 --> 00:04:11,519 feel of my past. All our friends are here. all our support systems here. 48 00:04:09,920 --> 00:04:16,720 » They explained to me that life on their dead end street avenue was mostly quiet 49 00:04:14,480 --> 00:04:20,799 and peaceful even though for decades there had always been an industrial 50 00:04:18,400 --> 00:04:26,960 building across the street behind a row of white trees. They say in 2018 things 51 00:04:24,240 --> 00:04:32,639 began to change drastically. The trees came out, a looping dock went in, and 52 00:04:29,440 --> 00:04:38,400 around 2021 a cryptocurrency mining operation began. In 2024, they say the 53 00:04:36,080 --> 00:04:42,880 noise from the building began around the clock. 54 00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:49,360 » How would you characterize life on your street before the data center and after? 55 00:04:47,199 --> 00:04:55,759 As different as night and day to me, even if it's cooler out, we can't open 56 00:04:51,840 --> 00:05:01,120 our windows like we used to. It's just amazing how much has changed 57 00:04:58,479 --> 00:05:05,520 our life. In March, Dwax city leaders adopted the first ever industrial noise 58 00:05:03,360 --> 00:05:10,960 ordinance for the city. It sets a daytime decel limit of 65 and a 59 00:05:08,080 --> 00:05:16,400 nighttime limit of 55. According to the city manager, they find Hypers scale 60 00:05:13,360 --> 00:05:20,960 data for violating the ordinance. Hypers scale is challenging the city's readings 61 00:05:18,400 --> 00:05:25,840 and methodology. For months, Hypers scale data has been touting plans for 62 00:05:23,039 --> 00:05:30,240 expansion despite city leaders saying they were left in the dark and that no 63 00:05:27,840 --> 00:05:35,120 expansion permits had been submitted. Last week, at the invitation of Dwajek's 64 00:05:32,479 --> 00:05:40,080 mayor, the CEO of Hypers Scale Data, Lillian Horn, spoke directly to city 65 00:05:37,600 --> 00:05:45,280 residents at a special council meeting. Horn explained that the company plans to 66 00:05:42,080 --> 00:05:49,440 invest $100 million to expand AI computing and advanced robotics at the 67 00:05:47,440 --> 00:05:54,160 facility and pivot away from cryptocurrency mining. He also said they 68 00:05:52,080 --> 00:05:57,039 would make multiple efforts to reduce sound levels and for residents of Rup 69 00:05:56,479 --> 00:06:04,400 Avenue. >> If they still aren't happy and feeling 70 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:07,520 their home is enjoyable, then we'll buy their property from them. 71 00:06:05,840 --> 00:06:12,000 » Dozens of residents spoke out passionately at the meeting. None in 72 00:06:10,080 --> 00:06:15,520 support of hypers scale. Why didn't you consider the residents when the loud the 73 00:06:13,759 --> 00:06:18,680 noise continued to get louder and louder and louder? 74 00:06:23,120 --> 00:06:28,800 » I wanted to know more about what the science says when it comes to data 75 00:06:26,560 --> 00:06:33,520 center sound. So I reached out to Rick Nitel, professor of environmental health 76 00:06:31,280 --> 00:06:36,800 sciences at the University of Michigan. When it comes to these data centers 77 00:06:35,199 --> 00:06:40,479 being built all around our area and around the country, are you concerned 78 00:06:38,400 --> 00:06:45,360 when it comes to sound? >> I am. This is kind of an unprecedented 79 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:49,440 new noise source that's being introduced into a lot of communities. We now know 80 00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:53,759 pretty definitively that noise in communities at high enough levels is 81 00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:58,800 associated with things like high blood pressure, heart attacks, stroke. Lindy 82 00:06:56,560 --> 00:07:02,880 Valenuela explained to me why she's now a plaintiff in [clears throat] a 83 00:07:00,080 --> 00:07:07,599 firstofits-kind class action lawsuit over allegations of excessive noise from 84 00:07:05,280 --> 00:07:11,919 the data center. The fan noise just exceeds such a level to where we can't 85 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:14,160 even enjoy being outside for more than a few minutes without either of us getting 86 00:07:13,520 --> 00:07:17,599 a headache. >> She's currently pregnant and has a 87 00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:22,639 17-month-old boy. >> His nursery is on the side of the house 88 00:07:20,080 --> 00:07:26,479 that faces the data center. When we're putting him down for bed at night, you 89 00:07:24,560 --> 00:07:31,280 can hear the fans coming in through the window. You can hear it in his crib. And 90 00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:35,440 that just that worries me. >> Laura Sheets is a partner at Little 91 00:07:32,880 --> 00:07:40,160 Sheets and Lindy's attorney in the case. >> They don't have the right to cause a 92 00:07:38,080 --> 00:07:43,759 substantial interference with your use and enjoyment of your property. This 93 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:48,319 data center is their neighbor. Um whether they're happy about that or not. 94 00:07:45,919 --> 00:07:52,479 But >> so my comments 95 00:07:50,479 --> 00:07:58,319 are, have you all ever listened to a video to hear how loud the data sends 96 00:07:55,120 --> 00:08:00,400 are? You have. Have you? >> Have you? 97 00:07:59,280 --> 00:08:06,560 » No. >> Have you, Travis? 98 00:08:02,080 --> 00:08:12,720 » Okay. So, you know, we're all natives. We look out for each other. You all 99 00:08:09,360 --> 00:08:16,479 represent us. So, since we don't have planning and zoning, and you all have 100 00:08:13,840 --> 00:08:20,720 heard this a thousand times, but if you don't do something, this can sneak right 101 00:08:18,720 --> 00:08:25,280 in your back door. If you're looking for money, do get a slaughter house, you 102 00:08:23,520 --> 00:08:29,360 know, in a packaging plant, you know, call the, you know, the cattleman's 103 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:32,880 association, call somebody to, you know, if you, if you're looking for money in 104 00:08:31,039 --> 00:08:38,080 the county, you know, to start a business, but this is not a business. 105 00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:41,599 This is annoyance. Who would want to have to sell their farm after they've 106 00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:46,640 owned it for a hundred years? Any of you all, you all own land? I know you own 107 00:08:43,680 --> 00:08:51,040 land. Who would want to have to do that? This is not like ordering a meal and my 108 00:08:49,440 --> 00:08:55,360 steak's not done. And you send it back to the chef and they try to fix it, send 109 00:08:53,440 --> 00:09:01,120 it back to you. You can't send this back. It's there. It's there to stay 110 00:08:58,399 --> 00:09:06,880 until you put something in place to slow this down so more research can be done. 111 00:09:04,959 --> 00:09:14,720 So once this is out of the box and it's here, it is here. So I'm ask all of you 112 00:09:10,399 --> 00:09:20,399 all magistrates to please get together try to form a plan if it's a mortorium 113 00:09:18,320 --> 00:09:25,120 which you know anything we've talked about mortoriums are the best thing to 114 00:09:22,480 --> 00:09:29,279 start. You know that gives you a little time to do a little more research 115 00:09:27,440 --> 00:09:32,640 because nobody and and if they want to buy your Oh yeah, they'll buy your 116 00:09:30,720 --> 00:09:35,600 property. Yeah. But at what value? And then where you going to go? going to 117 00:09:33,920 --> 00:09:40,320 leave your family, your friends, your grandchildren, you know. Well, I don't 118 00:09:38,959 --> 00:09:44,560 think that's right. And I don't and I hope none of you all think that's right 119 00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:48,640 to to put people in that position. So, I want you to think long and hard about 120 00:09:46,240 --> 00:09:54,560 trying to do a mortorium against this to at least give us time. Okay. 121 00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:57,720 » Thank you, D. >> Thank you, 122 00:09:58,720 --> 00:10:01,959 Miss Susan. 123 00:10:04,399 --> 00:10:12,320 Hi you all. Um my name is Suzanne Ro and um I noticed that a lot of the things 124 00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:16,160 that I'm going to say this evening have already been said, but I'm really hoping 125 00:10:14,160 --> 00:10:23,600 that that kind of reiterates how important it is to the community. Um I 126 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:30,480 moved to Owen County in 2019 and I chose to move here. Um I'm a homeowner. I'm a 127 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:36,000 taxpayer and I'm one of the members of a newly organized group of community 128 00:10:33,360 --> 00:10:42,320 members that are concerned about data centers and our concerns are growing and 129 00:10:39,680 --> 00:10:48,240 our numbers are growing. It was on July the 11th that Glenn Mans 130 00:10:45,519 --> 00:10:54,160 asked for a moratorum on the development of data centers. It's been two months 131 00:10:50,959 --> 00:11:02,240 since that meeting. I am once again asking you to pass a 12month moratorum 132 00:10:58,720 --> 00:11:09,519 until we can learn more about these negative quality of life issues such as 133 00:11:05,680 --> 00:11:16,800 noise and light pollution and rising utility cost for residents. 134 00:11:12,720 --> 00:11:23,680 I am asking you to please protect your constituents from pie in the sky 135 00:11:19,680 --> 00:11:30,480 promises of riches. It is my firm belief that there is a lack transparency across 136 00:11:27,200 --> 00:11:36,640 the country and Kentucky about the development of these data centers for a 137 00:11:32,800 --> 00:11:41,120 reason. As the old adage goes, if it sounds too good to be true, it probably 138 00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:47,279 is. Let's learn more before making an 139 00:11:44,160 --> 00:11:52,000 irreversible mistake. Thanks. >> Thank you, Mr. Thank you, 140 00:11:50,028 --> 00:11:55,320 [clears throat] Mr. Lauren. 141 00:11:57,920 --> 00:12:04,880 » My name is Lauren Ke. I've lived here for 30 years. I'll do like me here. I'll 142 00:12:02,720 --> 00:12:08,720 introduce myself. I work with Community Action, 143 00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:14,880 a lot of different organizations. I love my community. 144 00:12:10,720 --> 00:12:22,480 And I did a Google survey that I shared with Todd, but I put it back out again 145 00:12:17,200 --> 00:12:26,399 and I had se I had 73 responses. So based on the surveillary responses in 146 00:12:24,240 --> 00:12:31,200 this spreadsheet, there's a summary of 73 total responses regarding the data 147 00:12:29,200 --> 00:12:36,639 proposed data center in Owen County. The overall set in the vast majority of 148 00:12:33,839 --> 00:12:41,920 responders are will meet against the project. Remember, it's only 73. It's 149 00:12:38,959 --> 00:12:48,880 only a little tiny screenshot of how people feel, but it and it was just 150 00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:54,079 shared on Facebook. So, uh 64 of the 73 said no of being in favor of a data 151 00:12:51,760 --> 00:12:58,720 center being built. Only five respondents responded yes, while the 152 00:12:56,800 --> 00:13:02,480 remaining said maybe. And they need more information. And I think we all need 153 00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:07,360 more information. The primary concerns uh respondents 154 00:13:05,360 --> 00:13:10,880 showed high levels of concern across all environmental and infrastructural 155 00:13:09,360 --> 00:13:16,399 impact. 67 of them was worried about the raising 156 00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:22,000 their electric bill. 63 feared power outages a strain on the local grid. 63 157 00:13:19,519 --> 00:13:26,399 of the 73 concerned about this facility consuming 158 00:13:24,399 --> 00:13:29,440 large quantities of water or affecting if they had wellwaters. I don't know how 159 00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:34,000 many people in Owen County have wellwaters, but I'm from the mountains 160 00:13:32,560 --> 00:13:38,240 and the people down there in the mountains in the coal fields that have 161 00:13:35,360 --> 00:13:42,000 whales. Like my aunt has a whale and I think she her and her daughter have 162 00:13:39,680 --> 00:13:45,839 lupus and my opinion is when you're drilling down through and there's coal 163 00:13:43,760 --> 00:13:52,320 mines and they leave their equipment in coal mine. I would say part of their 164 00:13:48,560 --> 00:13:57,360 problem is maybe from that and and a lot of things are you know can 165 00:13:54,959 --> 00:14:02,480 be about. So back to this, the quality of life 61s feel that a large industrial 166 00:14:00,480 --> 00:14:08,160 warehouse conflicts with the Owen County farmland and rural way of life. 59 are 167 00:14:06,160 --> 00:14:13,519 concerned about the constant humming and the bright security light. When asked 168 00:14:11,040 --> 00:14:20,079 about the claims of high paying job tech jobs versus the reality of few low 169 00:14:16,320 --> 00:14:25,519 permanent jobs, 46 were concerned indicating spectacus as a belief that 170 00:14:21,839 --> 00:14:32,079 the jobs will be few and 15 responded maybe and 12 responded no. And local 171 00:14:29,279 --> 00:14:36,639 government and community action not this but community action not me. 172 00:14:34,959 --> 00:14:42,320 There is a strong demand for transparency of the 68 responses stating 173 00:14:40,160 --> 00:14:48,480 they would be upset if a local official discussed or signed agreements behind 174 00:14:44,480 --> 00:14:52,240 closed doors without public input. 54 respondents said they would sign a 175 00:14:50,160 --> 00:14:58,480 petition, attend a physical court meeting or join a group to demand a 176 00:14:55,120 --> 00:15:04,000 mtorium. Might have said that wrong. So planning and zoning and and this 177 00:15:01,680 --> 00:15:12,480 surprised me. So opinions on implementing planning and zoning 32 said 178 00:15:07,360 --> 00:15:17,680 yes, 23 said maybe and only 18 said no. So maybe that's something we can explore 179 00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:24,320 like to have planning and zonings like maybe the all those people who are just 180 00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:28,399 against it. Maybe it would work. And overall, the data paints a picture of a 181 00:15:26,480 --> 00:15:32,480 community that is highly concerned about the infrastructure, environmental, and 182 00:15:30,320 --> 00:15:37,040 cultural impacts of the data of a data center and are willing to take civic 183 00:15:34,560 --> 00:15:44,240 action to oppose it. And I also would like to say I work at Itron. Hosea 184 00:15:41,360 --> 00:15:49,839 Todd Hosea owns the building. Todd Hosea has signed a non-disclosure agreement 185 00:15:47,040 --> 00:15:55,839 and this is from a supervisor of mine. And if he is they have are the buyers 186 00:15:52,880 --> 00:15:58,959 are approaching the state for what did I say it was incentives 187 00:15:58,320 --> 00:16:02,560 » incentives >> for state incentives. So, they're 188 00:16:01,199 --> 00:16:08,160 approaching, I don't know what they're putting, of course, but they're 189 00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:13,040 approaching the state for incentives, whatever they are. And Todd Hosea told 190 00:16:11,120 --> 00:16:17,759 one of my supervisors that he don't think it's going to pass, but Todd Hosea 191 00:16:15,759 --> 00:16:21,279 is a a good salesman. So, I mean, I don't know. And this all happened. I've 192 00:16:19,199 --> 00:16:26,880 been out of work. I'm on medical leave from work, but this happened Thursday 193 00:16:24,320 --> 00:16:31,759 while I was out. So, I mean, something is going on. I don't know what's going 194 00:16:28,560 --> 00:16:36,320 on, but I mean, I just care about our families. I care about our children. I 195 00:16:34,079 --> 00:16:41,600 care about our future. I know. Do y'all all have grandchildren? 196 00:16:39,360 --> 00:16:46,560 You know, I mean, I just want want things to be good for us. And I know 197 00:16:44,399 --> 00:16:53,199 that we ain't got a lot, but we got to we got to be picky about what we do 198 00:16:48,399 --> 00:16:58,120 have. And that's just my opinion. But I appreciate. 199 00:16:54,160 --> 00:16:58,120 » Thank you. Thank you. 200 00:17:02,000 --> 00:17:11,039 Thank you everyone. Next we have uh this group confront we came and met with the 201 00:17:07,919 --> 00:17:15,679 uh chamber here locally and they asked if they could come and speak and it's 202 00:17:12,799 --> 00:17:22,760 the resource environmental solutions res and I invite them to do their 203 00:17:19,760 --> 00:17:22,760 please. 204 00:17:22,772 --> 00:17:27,839 [clears throat] Well, good afternoon, good evening, 205 00:17:25,679 --> 00:17:31,440 gentlemen. It sounds like we uh we came to the right meeting because we've got 206 00:17:29,760 --> 00:17:35,919 some discussions on data centers, which is great. Um, we're actually here, my 207 00:17:34,480 --> 00:17:39,919 name is Indicott Parks. I'm a professional wetland scientist by 208 00:17:37,280 --> 00:17:44,559 lensure, but I run our client solutions group in the in our region here, which 209 00:17:42,320 --> 00:17:49,280 can cover covers Kentucky, Virginia, and Maryland, DC, and Delaware for our 210 00:17:46,400 --> 00:17:53,760 company. Uh but we're actually here to present to you guys tonight uh we're the 211 00:17:51,440 --> 00:17:57,760 nation's largest uh nature-based solutions company. Uh so all things 212 00:17:56,160 --> 00:18:02,080 green infrastructure, if you think streams, wetlands, flood planes, that's 213 00:17:59,600 --> 00:18:06,880 what we do. Um, so we're here actually to speak a little bit to what the 214 00:18:04,080 --> 00:18:11,440 company does as a whole, but then also uh the impacts that data centers could 215 00:18:09,520 --> 00:18:19,280 have on the the county and the community and how we can combat that and bring 216 00:18:15,280 --> 00:18:22,799 some extra green incentives to projects or capital that may end up being 217 00:18:20,880 --> 00:18:25,360 invested in the county. So that's myself. I'll let Neil introduce himself 218 00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:28,480 real quick. >> I'm Neil Bethles. I'm also a 219 00:18:26,720 --> 00:18:33,520 professional weapon scientist. I'm a state business manager here in uh in 220 00:18:31,280 --> 00:18:38,720 Kentucky, offices in Louisville, and we also have an office in Frankfurt County 221 00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:43,039 local uh residents. >> Yeah. So, again, it sounds like there's 222 00:18:41,120 --> 00:18:48,559 plenty of community discussion going on around data centers, which I think is 223 00:18:44,720 --> 00:18:52,880 great. Uh we're we've talked to can say in upwards of eight to 10 counties 224 00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:58,000 throughout Kentucky in the past month and a half and this conversation has 225 00:18:55,280 --> 00:19:01,360 come up almost every single time. Uh which I think is good. We all need to 226 00:18:59,520 --> 00:19:06,400 get informed. We all need to be aware of what's coming and understand the pros, 227 00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:10,720 the cons, and a lot of the uh I think we're all trying to get educated at the 228 00:19:08,400 --> 00:19:17,120 same time. So coming from our stance specifically, we've been asked by the 229 00:19:14,000 --> 00:19:21,520 community side of things, the public, so like your economic development side of 230 00:19:18,799 --> 00:19:24,799 things who are approaching these and trying to figure out how to ride this 231 00:19:22,960 --> 00:19:29,679 fine line of wanting to see growth and and significant investment in the 232 00:19:26,720 --> 00:19:34,000 community versus how to do it reasonably as well as from the private sector on 233 00:19:32,160 --> 00:19:40,160 the data center side of things. So three different approaches here. We're seeing 234 00:19:37,200 --> 00:19:45,039 significant capital coming from the data center side a lot. It's it's on the 235 00:19:42,640 --> 00:19:48,960 proactive and the reactive side. So we've seen them where they come to a 236 00:19:47,120 --> 00:19:52,880 community whether it's been behind closed doors, NDA, stuff like that. It 237 00:19:51,360 --> 00:19:56,799 gets out public saying, "Hey, this is what we want to do." And then we see 238 00:19:54,640 --> 00:20:01,200 significant push back. We've also seen quite the opposite now where these 239 00:19:59,360 --> 00:20:05,679 companies are learning, hey, we can't just do all this stuff behind closed 240 00:20:03,200 --> 00:20:11,760 doors and expect a good outcome and and no uh and no backlash when things go 241 00:20:08,880 --> 00:20:16,480 public. Um so we're seeing it from both sides. Again, from our point of view, 242 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:21,280 we're trying to provide ecological uplift throughout any kind of 243 00:20:18,799 --> 00:20:25,039 development that happens. So we do restoration, stream and wetland 244 00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:30,720 restoration, onetoone in kind mitigation, flood plane restoration. Um, 245 00:20:28,320 --> 00:20:34,400 and so when these county when these com these businesses come to town and take 246 00:20:32,720 --> 00:20:40,880 impacts, let's say they take impacts on a farm or whatnot, we often set up banks 247 00:20:38,080 --> 00:20:46,400 or whatnot to offset the wetland and stream impacts that they may have. So 248 00:20:43,120 --> 00:20:51,760 again, that ecosystem uplift happens. Uh but again tonight talking about 249 00:20:49,360 --> 00:20:58,400 specifically what you guys can do to position yourselves as a community for 250 00:20:55,520 --> 00:21:03,440 these data centers coming to town. There is uh significant conversations in 251 00:21:01,520 --> 00:21:07,760 capital investment that these folks can bring to see not only gray 252 00:21:05,840 --> 00:21:11,760 infrastructure whether it be public library, swimming pools, stuff like 253 00:21:09,280 --> 00:21:16,960 that, but my side of the world, the green side of seeing, hey, like 254 00:21:13,840 --> 00:21:20,720 significant stream restoration or flood plane restoration to help with flooding, 255 00:21:19,200 --> 00:21:27,760 whether it's in town, out of town, however it may be, even at from a water 256 00:21:23,120 --> 00:21:33,840 shale, a water shed scale. Sorry guys. All the way down to like a specific 257 00:21:29,360 --> 00:21:38,960 stream. Um so the types of projects that we can do u there's different things 258 00:21:36,559 --> 00:21:42,960 from volutric water. So I know we had discussions about the the water usage of 259 00:21:41,120 --> 00:21:46,720 these data centers and and not really again not knowing what's what's 260 00:21:45,200 --> 00:21:50,080 happening whether they're greenwashing stuff like that. It's just we're 261 00:21:48,400 --> 00:21:56,240 learning a lot as we go. And I think these data centers are also getting keep 262 00:21:52,080 --> 00:21:59,919 me check on time too, but um we're also learning more that these data centers 263 00:21:57,840 --> 00:22:04,320 are are actually figuring out how to use a lot less water andor completely 264 00:22:02,159 --> 00:22:09,520 self-contained. There's also new technology going into like optical 265 00:22:06,480 --> 00:22:14,000 chips, stuff that's way over my head uh to reduce the heat, therefore using less 266 00:22:11,679 --> 00:22:20,000 water, yada yada yada. But all in all, at the end of it, they're still bringing 267 00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:26,559 capital to communities to see projects that are beneficial. So RES can do again 268 00:22:24,080 --> 00:22:30,799 like we were talking about, but specific if it's educational pieces, parks, 269 00:22:29,200 --> 00:22:35,120 pollinator gardens, things of that nature, we've seen those uh be 270 00:22:33,280 --> 00:22:40,320 successful. So again, you're you're helping the the the community on you 271 00:22:39,120 --> 00:22:43,520 guys are surrounded by natural resources. is I'm an outdoorsman, a 272 00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:47,919 conservationist by heart. So like I care about it as well. So seeing the next 273 00:22:45,600 --> 00:22:54,720 generation have the ability to learn and be educated through those programs, 274 00:22:50,480 --> 00:23:00,000 options like that. Um I've even seen data centers come to a site to do a 275 00:22:57,120 --> 00:23:03,679 restoration project. Let's say something does happen here and then 276 00:23:01,760 --> 00:23:08,480 we're able to restore an off-site stream on a local farm or whatnot. There's even 277 00:23:05,919 --> 00:23:13,520 been instances, I think, of equipment being worked into the deal to help that 278 00:23:10,559 --> 00:23:17,760 farmer then maintain what whatever it is, whether it's cattle fencing or or 279 00:23:15,520 --> 00:23:20,880 stuff like that to reduce sediment um down street. So, 280 00:23:19,039 --> 00:23:24,960 » anything you want to add? >> I was just going to mention a specific 281 00:23:23,120 --> 00:23:29,120 project we work on. It's called Richard's uh property mitigation bank. 282 00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:34,880 It's in Scott County, just over the way. Um if it's on 75 acres, it's owned by 283 00:23:32,240 --> 00:23:41,919 the Nature Conservancy. It's near city and um we basically restored Eagle Creek 284 00:23:38,640 --> 00:23:46,880 whed about 15,000 uh linear feet of stream that was uh impacted from you 285 00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:50,880 know past agricultural channelization and riparian port corridor de 286 00:23:49,200 --> 00:23:54,799 deforestation um and grazing and things like that. So 287 00:23:53,360 --> 00:24:00,000 uh that's what resz did. We basically came in and restored 15,045 linear feet 288 00:23:57,919 --> 00:24:07,039 of degraded headwater intermittent and ephemeral streams and um and that helped 289 00:24:04,880 --> 00:24:11,520 um and and we repaired the riparian coral planted trees and things like that 290 00:24:08,960 --> 00:24:16,240 along there which helped out like the uh Indiana bat and the northern longard bat 291 00:24:13,279 --> 00:24:18,799 habitat and there was also a significant amount of muscles I think about like 20 292 00:24:17,520 --> 00:24:23,360 muscles in the in the stream down through there and obviously the uh 293 00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:26,880 protection of the area and erosion protection definitely help. So that's 294 00:24:25,279 --> 00:24:30,799 kind of a specific project that we worked on. You're right. 295 00:24:27,919 --> 00:24:34,720 » Yes. So again, RES's stance I think is resource environmental solutions re our 296 00:24:32,880 --> 00:24:39,279 stance is neither here nor there. We just want to see uh as development 297 00:24:37,200 --> 00:24:45,520 happens the mitigation and the restoration happen at the same time in a 298 00:24:42,720 --> 00:24:48,159 beneficial and positive way. So we stand >> with any industry right not necessarily 299 00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:52,720 data center >> correct completely across industrial 300 00:24:50,720 --> 00:24:57,200 commercial we hit it all. Just again, I think that the hyper the data center 301 00:24:54,880 --> 00:25:00,799 hyperscaler talk is is something that's hitting home for you guys right now in 302 00:24:58,640 --> 00:25:04,799 regards to growth. Again, if we were in a metropolitan area, we might be talking 303 00:25:02,799 --> 00:25:08,960 about commercial real estate or industrial, even higher education, 304 00:25:06,880 --> 00:25:12,960 things like that. It all it all comes down to the give and the take. If you're 305 00:25:11,200 --> 00:25:19,960 going to take wetlands and streams, we're here to help make sure that those 306 00:25:14,559 --> 00:25:19,960 are replaced and in a functioning way. 307 00:25:20,400 --> 00:25:27,200 that again if we can be of any answer like questions or anything like that in 308 00:25:25,039 --> 00:25:31,679 ter in regards to historical what we've seen what would what would it look like 309 00:25:29,360 --> 00:25:36,480 here in the future we just want to help you guys position yourselves whatever 310 00:25:34,000 --> 00:25:42,559 way you guys end up swinging and moving forward um that if you guys choose to 311 00:25:40,799 --> 00:25:46,960 entertain the option of someone coming to town like a data center andor any 312 00:25:44,960 --> 00:25:53,520 other large industrial commercial anything like that uh rez is here to 313 00:25:50,320 --> 00:25:58,159 help offset that that and and provide significant ecological uplift because 314 00:25:56,159 --> 00:26:03,679 again I think we all care about the streams that are in our backyard or the 315 00:25:59,679 --> 00:26:07,679 parks that our kids play at. Um so the give and the take. So but we wanted 316 00:26:06,400 --> 00:26:12,400 to make sure that you guys know that we're here as well as everyone in the 317 00:26:09,919 --> 00:26:15,760 room as well um to help out with that and if we can answer any questions what 318 00:26:14,000 --> 00:26:20,799 we're seeing across the region. Rez works on a nationwide scale. Uh and 319 00:26:18,320 --> 00:26:26,080 again we're we're not only hitting the the hyperscaler data centers throughout 320 00:26:23,039 --> 00:26:30,720 the country but also other large uh development projects that again need 321 00:26:28,720 --> 00:26:34,960 mitigation based on federal and state laws. Sorry. 322 00:26:32,320 --> 00:26:39,039 » Can I ask a question? Like like if something does come like you know maybe 323 00:26:37,279 --> 00:26:44,880 y'all can't do anything about it like if it's in 324 00:26:41,440 --> 00:26:50,240 is that something that the city or y'all or somebody like who would pay you who 325 00:26:47,200 --> 00:26:54,400 would help help make sure those laws and everything's that they just don't come 326 00:26:52,159 --> 00:26:56,080 and just sweep everything under the rug. Does that 327 00:26:54,960 --> 00:27:00,320 » that direct me? >> Yeah, that makes any sense. I 328 00:26:58,480 --> 00:27:01,520 » it does completely. who who's providing capital. 329 00:27:01,039 --> 00:27:05,679 » Yeah. >> And making sure that nothing's getting 330 00:27:02,880 --> 00:27:09,440 swept under the rug. So, I think am I allowed to answer this right now? 331 00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:12,720 » Yeah. Well, we're going to Yes. But if you give me just a second, what I'd like 332 00:27:11,200 --> 00:27:15,760 to do is finish out the meeting. Okay. >> And then we will open it up. That's how 333 00:27:14,240 --> 00:27:20,159 we've done in the past. That way it's the meetings continue, you know, through 334 00:27:17,840 --> 00:27:23,600 and then we when we adjourn the meeting, um that way we can actually set and we 335 00:27:22,080 --> 00:27:26,159 can all sit here all night long. That'd be great. But you know, 336 00:27:25,200 --> 00:27:28,960 » we'll be here after >> because I want I want everybody to have 337 00:27:27,440 --> 00:27:32,880 the opportunity to to speak to these guys if we can. Um, so y'all have any 338 00:27:31,760 --> 00:27:36,240 questions? >> Do you have a card with some context? 339 00:27:34,400 --> 00:27:39,760 » Yes, sir. We have a full wrap sheet on capabilities as well as cards for any 340 00:27:38,400 --> 00:27:45,039 kind of follow-up questions you guys have. Again, here to help position you 341 00:27:42,640 --> 00:27:49,520 guys and educate you guys on what a green solution to a project could look 342 00:27:47,039 --> 00:27:53,799 like. Okay. Cool. Thank you. Thanks so much. Thank you. Thank you. 343 00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:04,720 All right, moving on to uh acceptance of reports. We have the EMA report and the 344 00:28:02,799 --> 00:28:09,840 general reports. Make that motion, judge. 345 00:28:07,520 --> 00:28:13,840 Motion made by Travis, second by Dane. Any discussion? 346 00:28:12,000 --> 00:28:19,080 All in favor? >> Any opposed? 347 00:28:15,840 --> 00:28:19,080 None opposed. 348 00:28:20,640 --> 00:28:27,200 Moving on to action items. Make a motion to untable the Kentucky 349 00:28:25,279 --> 00:28:31,840 Transportation District 6 discretionary funds. Discussion. Motion. 350 00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:38,880 Second. >> Motion made by Tom. Second by Wayne. All 351 00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:44,559 in favor? I. Any opposed? Opposed. 352 00:28:41,200 --> 00:28:49,520 This time I would ask if transportation cabinet could speak on the discretionary 353 00:28:46,640 --> 00:28:55,760 codes in which we're presenting. So if anyone doesn't know who I am, I'm 354 00:28:52,399 --> 00:29:00,399 Kim Guard. I work for highways. I work here in Owen County. I have Caroline 355 00:28:57,360 --> 00:29:05,279 County counties. Um and I'm here tonight to speak specifically about ro secondary 356 00:29:02,559 --> 00:29:12,080 roles. Um, so our last meeting we did program that 357 00:29:09,919 --> 00:29:18,799 me and my branch manager and the chief all agreed on well for about 1:30 today 358 00:29:16,399 --> 00:29:24,640 my branch manager go and said we need to take that draw. So I guess there's a 359 00:29:21,679 --> 00:29:31,440 battle brewing over the money that the legislators got say the 360 00:29:28,960 --> 00:29:36,480 guy. I can give you my opinion on that money, 361 00:29:33,679 --> 00:29:39,840 but um yeah, so if you want I'm not staying at this meeting tonight. I'm not 362 00:29:38,080 --> 00:29:46,720 staying after, but I can come to your office and speak to you if you like. So 363 00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:51,120 you can share that information. So um thinking that Hills Road over there is 364 00:29:48,640 --> 00:29:58,159 Sher's Road, which is still in my opinion valuable 365 00:29:54,640 --> 00:30:03,919 project. Anyway, um that leaves the three-year-old SW Valley, which has 366 00:30:00,559 --> 00:30:09,760 already been through 11. Um they may be going to pay that this year 367 00:30:07,039 --> 00:30:14,960 pretty soon. I'm not sure. Uh but that would move that Eden shale up next about 368 00:30:12,080 --> 00:30:24,720 8:25. Without your flex monies, um I I'll get 369 00:30:19,520 --> 00:30:27,919 $100,000 or so over budget. Um, and if you choose to keep your flex monies, I'm 370 00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:32,320 still probably going to send that project to a letting to see what 371 00:30:29,840 --> 00:30:38,000 happens, to see where we are and see if I can get additional funds 372 00:30:36,080 --> 00:30:43,279 to cover. I don't know that's going to happen. Um, 373 00:30:41,120 --> 00:30:47,440 if you give me the money back, I for sure can get it done because we're just 374 00:30:44,880 --> 00:30:53,919 $15,000 store. I'm pretty sure my estimate is enough that that would that 375 00:30:51,279 --> 00:31:00,320 would work. And then definitely the stir ridge 3102 from the bridge to challenge 376 00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:03,960 wheels that next option. So 377 00:31:04,960 --> 00:31:13,919 the decisions that that you need to make some 378 00:31:08,799 --> 00:31:17,840 come back in a few weeks that um is so if you choose to keep them 379 00:31:16,480 --> 00:31:24,000 to keep them if you choose to give them back and give them back. So, that's 380 00:31:21,840 --> 00:31:29,120 that's all I need from you guys tonight. But I will tell you that we did we did 381 00:31:27,440 --> 00:31:35,440 some patching on 325 last week and they did 382 00:31:32,799 --> 00:31:41,279 some patching on Squaresville Road which 383 00:31:38,320 --> 00:31:47,679 um they did the opposite end that I had asked them to do while 384 00:31:43,200 --> 00:31:54,000 » Wow. That's I was all I thought I was on my vacation. Um I'm sorry I went 22 then 385 00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:57,440 I did not. So we're going to do some more 386 00:31:55,840 --> 00:32:06,480 but I don't know how much more we can do because the money is crazy budget are 387 00:32:01,279 --> 00:32:11,120 terrible. So um I do all I can do. I give you 110% 388 00:32:08,880 --> 00:32:18,559 um even though it may not look like it. do um trying to get the most I can get 389 00:32:15,519 --> 00:32:24,240 for each of the three counties. I try to be fair to all I live in but I 390 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:27,480 try to be fair to everyone. 391 00:32:28,799 --> 00:32:38,720 I definitely appreciate your time and honest. I I just can't understand why 392 00:32:34,720 --> 00:32:41,919 I guess when roads are in more more need than than other roads that they get 393 00:32:40,880 --> 00:32:44,960 scooped over. >> Which road? 394 00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:48,399 » Well, Squaresville, you can't convince me that Squaresville isn't in worse 395 00:32:47,760 --> 00:32:54,600 shape. >> So, here's the deal on Squidersville 345 396 00:32:51,600 --> 00:32:54,600 1883. 397 00:32:56,480 --> 00:33:05,919 Okay. So in January, March, somewhere in there, the 398 00:33:02,320 --> 00:33:11,919 legislators, Miss Rag said, I secured funding for these roles. 399 00:33:09,840 --> 00:33:18,320 Those go off my list. We have a very small amount. Even if I was going to 400 00:33:14,240 --> 00:33:24,159 expire, right now we only $400,000. It's 850,000 to pay. We can get half of it 401 00:33:21,120 --> 00:33:28,880 done and tear the other half up next year. the P part we just paid would tear 402 00:33:27,279 --> 00:33:33,519 up to pay the other one. >> But what I guess my question is if we 403 00:33:30,960 --> 00:33:36,240 did the the part that you had s suggested from the 22 side. 404 00:33:35,600 --> 00:33:41,760 » Yeah. >> And then got half of it which is 405 00:33:39,120 --> 00:33:43,039 » what is in the most need I think we all would all agree on. 406 00:33:42,480 --> 00:33:46,720 » Oh yeah. >> And then we came from the other side. 407 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:54,080 » I can't make them come the other way. >> Okay. Okay. And that's 408 00:33:50,320 --> 00:33:56,960 right. I mean, if if it come to but if Mangle gets it, they're coming up, 409 00:33:55,760 --> 00:34:02,080 » right? >> Yeah. So, but when when they sent their 410 00:33:59,679 --> 00:34:07,600 phones and it's in the sixure plan, you can see it exactly and say they're going 411 00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:10,720 to do them. >> I can't get to that. 412 00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:17,839 » And I like I said, >> I can get you. I think they're damn, 413 00:34:14,720 --> 00:34:22,399 » but I can't get it. But here's the deal. They like the 414 00:34:19,359 --> 00:34:24,879 email. It's for federal aid grants. That's the money they got. They got 415 00:34:23,679 --> 00:34:30,000 federal money. >> So when an elected official says, "I 416 00:34:28,240 --> 00:34:36,399 secured some money to do these rural second arrows." They're not a federal. 417 00:34:32,720 --> 00:34:40,480 » So we can't use it tonight. >> But she's not going to tell you that. 418 00:34:37,599 --> 00:34:43,040 » No, she you're right. I agree. >> So I'm the one that stands up and gets 419 00:34:42,000 --> 00:34:45,839 the heat from everybody. >> And like I said, I appreciate your time. 420 00:34:45,119 --> 00:34:50,720 Yeah. >> Well, dude, I don't I got 421 00:34:48,800 --> 00:34:54,760 I got fixed in I'm going to walk out that door. I don't care what anybody 422 00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:02,640 that's just the way it is. But I give you every day. I'll promise you that. 423 00:34:58,960 --> 00:35:07,920 » I believe that. Yeah. So, but when when they say they have the money to do it, 424 00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:13,440 then I'm not going to spend what little bit of land we have to try to do those 425 00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:17,839 because on the six-year plan, it says they're 426 00:35:15,200 --> 00:35:22,800 going to do them. >> Yeah. And you had Fair View last year at 427 00:35:19,680 --> 00:35:26,240 the top business and then they said that they got that off a little bit, which I 428 00:35:25,680 --> 00:35:31,359 understand. >> Yeah. It shows we have such this budget 429 00:35:28,800 --> 00:35:38,160 if your budget I told you this last time is akin to what the 2011 430 00:35:35,920 --> 00:35:43,920 budget was. Yeah. Okay. 15 years ago, this is I know 431 00:35:41,599 --> 00:35:51,440 we had a standard asphalt 15 years ago was $45 a ton. 432 00:35:48,000 --> 00:35:59,280 Today it's $120 a ton. So, man, we're we're fighting out here 433 00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:04,240 and I I've said it for the last seven or eight years. 434 00:36:01,599 --> 00:36:09,400 We're never going to catch up. We're we're we're beyond catching up. Only 12 435 00:36:06,400 --> 00:36:09,400 second. 436 00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:20,839 » Can I ask a question in just a second? Any any other question from the floor? 437 00:36:17,680 --> 00:36:20,839 Thank you. 438 00:36:25,599 --> 00:36:33,119 So, there's going to be a a motion on this and it's going to be either there's 439 00:36:30,240 --> 00:36:37,440 three options. Uh, keep the flex bones, return the flex funds, or take it until 440 00:36:35,440 --> 00:36:42,839 next meeting. And that's the one that we most we've 441 00:36:39,839 --> 00:36:42,839 accepted. 442 00:36:58,640 --> 00:37:03,920 It seems like everybody's scared to say something. So, I'll make a motion to 443 00:37:01,520 --> 00:37:09,079 keep the flex. >> Motion made to keep the flex. Travis 444 00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:09,079 Ferro. 445 00:37:13,760 --> 00:37:21,880 Second by Dane. Any discussion? >> All in favor? 446 00:37:22,480 --> 00:37:28,960 » I don't know. Looks like with them knocking Alice off, which we didn't 447 00:37:26,079 --> 00:37:33,680 really need that done, we can get on down this list. 448 00:37:32,240 --> 00:37:40,960 You know, getting needing shale done would would be a blessing. 449 00:37:37,520 --> 00:37:45,920 and maybe a little Stewart bridge if we keep the 450 00:37:43,359 --> 00:37:52,359 91,000. What are we going to do? 451 00:37:48,320 --> 00:37:52,359 Where it go? What are we doing? 452 00:37:54,720 --> 00:38:02,079 » They're asking me. We'll be using county roads.

There's a lot of little water projects going on. separate service be 455 00:38:08,320 --> 00:38:11,720 used for that 456 00:38:13,040 --> 00:38:17,160 » which all around you in the county 457 00:38:20,320 --> 00:38:25,800 just need something done. It's not in my district but it's a mandatory 458 00:38:25,839 --> 00:38:34,839 I agree. >> I just thought we'd get it done. Maybe 459 00:38:31,200 --> 00:38:34,839 that's all I got. 460 00:38:38,960 --> 00:38:45,119 Is that motion on the table for now? >> I still make a motion. 461 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:50,800 » All right. >> So, and thank we can take a vote. 462 00:38:47,359 --> 00:38:55,240 » All right. Let's take a vote. >> I'm in favor. I 463 00:38:51,920 --> 00:38:55,240 » All in favor? 464 00:38:56,320 --> 00:39:01,480 » All opposed? Hey. 465 00:39:10,560 --> 00:39:18,720 the uh discretionary funding right now, the flex funding we have in the pool is 466 00:39:15,200 --> 00:39:23,200 roughly um without having the number directly in front of me. I get one out, 467 00:39:20,640 --> 00:39:28,240 but it's probably right around 500,000 is what's in that poll right now to be 468 00:39:24,720 --> 00:39:34,160 used for second row county res. Um, I don't know that the 91,000 is going to 469 00:39:31,280 --> 00:39:38,480 change that. Um, as far as the use of it without getting eaten shell done, which 470 00:39:36,400 --> 00:39:44,000 I think is very important. Every road is in horrible condition. So, uh, my vote 471 00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:52,000 is going to be to uh, get the funding back and focus on getting 472 00:39:47,760 --> 00:39:56,560 you know, we need another motion. >> What? 473 00:39:53,119 --> 00:39:58,960 » The motion is to keep the flex.
