We've been 4207 02:34:10,490 --> 02:34:12,449 innovative with aviation, the 4208 02:34:13,219 --> 02:34:16,219 just the medicine culture and 4209 02:34:16,521 --> 02:34:18,756 our Western heritage. So now we 4210 02:34:18,756 --> 02:34:20,756 have an opportunity. 4211 02:34:22,590 --> 02:34:24,329 To host digital infrastructure 4212 02:34:24,329 --> 02:34:25,463 in Fort Worth. 4213 02:34:25,463 --> 02:34:28,463 Not very Minnesota's, not maybe 4214 02:34:28,867 --> 02:34:31,267 very many cities, could 4215 02:34:32,170 --> 02:34:32,903 attract.

That's why I 4219 02:34:42,714 --> 02:34:43,314 applaud the moratorium. But by 4220 02:34:43,314 --> 02:34:46,500 the same token. I think that's 4221 02:34:46,500 --> 02:34:46,619 why this revised plan really 4222 02:34:46,619 --> 02:34:49,190 doesn't matter. Because they 4223 02:34:51,589 --> 02:34:52,424 came to the table with one 4224 02:34:52,424 --> 02:34:52,924 thing. And they have made some 4225 02:34:52,924 --> 02:34:53,458 revisions to improve the 4226 02:34:53,458 --> 02:34:55,858 project that they already 4227 02:34:58,290 --> 02:35:00,429 brought before the council. 4228 02:35:03,602 --> 02:35:06,370 It's an important. It's very 4229 02:35:06,370 --> 02:35:07,705 important. But I say. And Black 4230 02:35:07,705 --> 02:35:09,705 Mountain has already 4231 02:35:10,843 --> 02:35:13,243 demonstrated support for our 4232 02:35:13,579 --> 02:35:14,179 community in many ways.

You've got a 4270 02:36:35,661 --> 02:36:36,462 bunch of people who I think 4271 02:36:36,462 --> 02:36:37,290 that is bad on water. 4272 02:36:37,290 --> 02:36:38,364 Late Tuesday.

So I 4275 02:36:43,200 --> 02:36:46,602 think what with the guy need 4276 02:36:48,174 --> 02:36:48,641 to do is low. We stop bickering 4277 02:36:48,641 --> 02:36:49,209 is get this guy would 4278 02:36:49,209 --> 02:36:50,610 Blackstone because if it was 4279 02:36:50,610 --> 02:36:53,610 named White Stone would be 4280 02:36:55,916 --> 02:36:58,551 different. Think about it too 4281 02:36:58,551 --> 02:37:01,754 small. You know, so I just want 4282 02:37:01,754 --> 02:37:03,823 this will add to it. But but my 4283 02:37:03,823 --> 02:37:06,592 whole point is lit. That guy 4284 02:37:06,592 --> 02:37:07,260 from Blackstone get with the 4285 02:37:07,260 --> 02:37:10,260 community.

And so 4291 02:37:20,373 --> 02:37:23,373 they can get the numbers 4292 02:37:23,475 --> 02:37:24,770 together so we move forward and 4293 02:37:24,770 --> 02:37:26,790 stop big win.

There's different 4312 02:38:02,149 --> 02:38:04,549 perspectives. And that's really 4313 02:38:06,860 --> 02:38:06,620 what we need a good, healthy 4314 02:38:06,620 --> 02:38:08,654 conversation. But I'm here 4315 02:38:08,654 --> 02:38:11,654 today to actually speak in 4316 02:38:11,959 --> 02:38:12,424 favor of the proposed site plan 4317 02:38:12,424 --> 02:38:13,590 for the data center. 4318 02:38:13,590 --> 02:38:16,659 The powers that be actually did 4319 02:38:17,731 --> 02:38:19,000 meet with the community there 4320 02:38:19,000 --> 02:38:19,499 for us, too.

But I 4323 02:38:25,505 --> 02:38:26,873 do want to let you know that. 4324 02:38:26,873 --> 02:38:29,442 More broadly. I proved the 4325 02:38:29,442 --> 02:38:32,245 concept in general I was born, 4326 02:38:32,245 --> 02:38:34,115 raised educated worship, preach 4327 02:38:34,115 --> 02:38:35,550 and teach right here in the 4328 02:38:35,550 --> 02:38:38,550 city of Fort Worth business 4329 02:38:38,585 --> 02:38:39,120 here in the city of forward. 4330 02:38:39,120 --> 02:38:42,322 I grew up not too far from 4331 02:38:42,322 --> 02:38:42,890 where this data center. It's 4332 02:38:42,890 --> 02:38:45,290 going. I'm actually somebody 4333 02:38:45,960 --> 02:38:46,894 who spent their whole life the 4334 02:38:46,894 --> 02:38:47,461 whole adult life in the tech 4335 02:38:47,461 --> 02:38:50,461 industry. We'll tell you how 4336 02:38:51,232 --> 02:38:53,835 long that's been. But it's been 4337 02:38:53,835 --> 02:38:56,271 a long time. And if someone who 4338 02:38:56,271 --> 02:38:56,704 has worked in a data center. 4339 02:38:56,704 --> 02:38:58,205 I have a very unique 4340 02:38:58,205 --> 02:39:00,740 perspective of all of this. 4341 02:39:00,740 --> 02:39:00,675 And I can tell you this that 4342 02:39:00,675 --> 02:39:04,312 most of us use the data center 4343 02:39:04,312 --> 02:39:04,879 before we even brushed our 4344 02:39:04,879 --> 02:39:06,814 teeth this morning. If your 4345 02:39:06,814 --> 02:39:07,415 cell phone woke you up and you 4346 02:39:07,415 --> 02:39:10,415 check the weather, guess what? 4347 02:39:10,451 --> 02:39:11,117 You probably were connected to 4348 02:39:11,117 --> 02:39:11,953 a data center. 4349 02:39:11,953 --> 02:39:14,755 If you read Scripture before 4350 02:39:14,755 --> 02:39:17,692 you got out of bed on the phone 4351 02:39:17,692 --> 02:39:20,610 that app was probably connected 4352 02:39:20,610 --> 02:39:23,865 to a data center. If you use 4353 02:39:23,865 --> 02:39:26,265 Facebook data center. Email 4354 02:39:26,867 --> 02:39:28,735 data Center as Google. A 4355 02:39:28,735 --> 02:39:29,236 question data center you to 4356 02:39:29,236 --> 02:39:31,636 data center chatgpt. You 4357 02:39:34,175 --> 02:39:34,809 definitely used a data center. 4358 02:39:34,809 --> 02:39:37,478 If you use Starbucks on the way 4359 02:39:37,478 --> 02:39:41,780 here and use your debit card. 4360 02:39:41,915 --> 02:39:43,651 Guess what? You are using a 4361 02:39:43,651 --> 02:39:44,186 data center. If your wife have 4362 02:39:44,186 --> 02:39:47,786 Amazon on speed dial is on 4363 02:39:47,922 --> 02:39:50,322 first-name basis with the 4364 02:39:51,225 --> 02:39:53,225 delivery driver. Another. 4365 02:39:54,429 --> 02:39:56,429 Data center. 4366 02:39:57,932 --> 02:39:58,866 But the point is it. 4367 02:39:58,866 --> 02:40:00,434 Data centers on some strange 4368 02:40:00,434 --> 02:40:02,434 technically technical found 4369 02:40:02,771 --> 02:40:04,805 thing. It's literally a 4370 02:40:04,805 --> 02:40:05,773 building with a bunch of 4371 02:40:05,773 --> 02:40:07,709 computers and it's not a 4372 02:40:07,709 --> 02:40:08,342 situation where the that they 4373 02:40:08,342 --> 02:40:10,711 were looking for infrastructure 4374 02:40:10,711 --> 02:40:11,446 that doesn't exist. We're 4375 02:40:11,446 --> 02:40:12,547 already doing this right now 4376 02:40:12,547 --> 02:40:14,947 that that infrastructure is 4377 02:40:15,851 --> 02:40:16,817 supporting the life. We're 4378 02:40:16,817 --> 02:40:17,552 currently living today. 4379 02:40:17,552 --> 02:40:18,190 We don't think about the 4380 02:40:18,190 --> 02:40:20,190 infrastructure behind 4381 02:40:21,220 --> 02:40:23,257 electricity. Every time we flip 4382 02:40:23,257 --> 02:40:23,891 open alike. We don't think 4383 02:40:23,891 --> 02:40:24,459 about the infrastructure behind 4384 02:40:24,459 --> 02:40:27,129 water. Every time we turn on 4385 02:40:27,129 --> 02:40:27,696 the faucet and to be honest. 4386 02:40:27,696 --> 02:40:29,197 Most of us don't think about 4387 02:40:29,197 --> 02:40:30,866 the infrastructure behind the 4388 02:40:30,866 --> 02:40:33,368 digital lives that we live 4389 02:40:33,368 --> 02:40:34,670 every single day. When we pick 4390 02:40:34,670 --> 02:40:37,506 up our phones. But that 4391 02:40:37,506 --> 02:40:39,906 infrastructure has to exist. 4392 02:40:41,176 --> 02:40:43,312 Some where it's not in the 4393 02:40:43,312 --> 02:40:43,846 cloud. It literally is in a 4394 02:40:43,846 --> 02:40:44,412 building.
