125 00:08:51,710 --> 00:08:52,190 I don't know. 126 00:08:52,190 --> 00:08:59,190 I don't know and it's just it's weird to me how the central hull is going at the tower 127 00:08:59,190 --> 00:09:02,690 Coming down the lane going what is that? 128 00:09:03,090 --> 00:09:08,350 South now sunrise and then heading back towards Greensboro. It's not heading into town 129 00:09:08,350 --> 00:09:12,370 So I don't know if it's a start point form or what I 130 00:09:13,850 --> 00:09:21,230 Do know it's a local contractor who would be doing all the road doorings and trenching stuff like that form 131 00:09:21,230 --> 00:09:22,330 Is it all underground? 132 00:09:22,670 --> 00:09:23,890 It's all underground, correct. 133 00:09:24,550 --> 00:09:24,670 Yes. 134 00:09:25,730 --> 00:09:29,590 I just, so like if you see the line where they're going down 135 00:09:29,590 --> 00:09:31,850 and then they're going south, yeah. 136 00:09:32,010 --> 00:09:34,930 So you have the overall where they're coming south. 137 00:09:35,150 --> 00:09:38,350 My only issue was that is your cross and water meters 138 00:09:38,350 --> 00:09:41,030 right there because all the water meters are out front. 139 00:09:41,550 --> 00:09:46,390 So I just, you know, I, for future town work, whatever, 140 00:09:46,590 --> 00:09:49,850 I just don't want to run to anything where we have to do 141 00:09:49,850 --> 00:09:55,310 some kind of water meter pit, whatever kind of upgrade and now you have a 142 00:09:55,310 --> 00:10:00,410 fiber line runner right across meter pit. So I'd rather have it in the rear so you 143 00:10:00,410 --> 00:10:04,990 don't have to worry back because those are 95% of the time gravity lines. They're 144 00:10:04,990 --> 00:10:09,470 a little easier to work around but yeah I just want to make you guys aware the guys 145 00:10:09,470 --> 00:10:15,970 have been kind of not pushy but really wanting to get going but yeah we'll leave 146 00:10:15,970 --> 00:10:20,990 been up to you for the decision. I mean, you know, the structures is in. Is there 147 00:10:20,990 --> 00:10:26,950 an alley here? It's a paper alley. But that would make. So if you look at this 148 00:10:26,950 --> 00:10:32,330 here, this one's a little weird. So it's a paper alley, just like everything 149 00:10:32,330 --> 00:10:36,770 else, it's a straight shot. That's the old Dave's bar there. It goes this way and 150 00:10:36,770 --> 00:10:42,050 that. The only issue is with coming down this way. Well, three, which is back here 151 00:10:42,050 --> 00:10:48,370 by the cemetery, it cuts down, runs the same path, which is easily located, so they're 152 00:10:48,370 --> 00:10:56,890 away from it, but we'd have to look into exactly how much room they want, to place 30 153 00:10:56,890 --> 00:11:00,490 foot easements right away, what have you. 154 00:11:03,390 --> 00:11:08,210 I'm just not 100% sure on it right now. It seems 155 00:11:08,210 --> 00:11:14,950 It seems like they have to have a central hub, which is that green dot there at our water tower. 156 00:11:16,770 --> 00:11:18,590 I think it's probably the starting point for the town. 157 00:11:18,810 --> 00:11:24,150 I just don't, I don't know if we want that right there, that's just if we ever have major 158 00:11:24,150 --> 00:11:30,210 construction or anything like that, I would rather not hinder the town with having to go 159 00:11:30,210 --> 00:11:33,450 around it, but just want to give you guys a heads up on that. 160 00:11:33,450 --> 00:11:41,770 Well, yeah, just one question, I'm on board with what you're saying, you know, if you're 161 00:11:41,770 --> 00:11:47,650 going to run a line towards Greensboro, we'll find, put it, get it off of the street 162 00:11:47,650 --> 00:11:51,830 because I'm thinking what happens, you know, when we have a water main break or something 163 00:11:51,830 --> 00:11:52,550 of that nature. 164 00:11:54,550 --> 00:12:00,970 But what concerns me more than anything is the fact that they haven't talked about running 165 00:12:00,970 --> 00:12:10,430 lines in town. You know they're not they're not being well the initial email says you know 166 00:12:10,430 --> 00:12:15,650 bring the service to the residents of the town but when you look at this map it's going 167 00:12:15,650 --> 00:12:22,130 out of town. Well that's that's my point. That's where I'm just yeah it's just you know I don't want 168 00:12:22,130 --> 00:12:27,830 to be a hub for them and the town doesn't get anything out of it. Now could it be a money maker for 169 00:12:27,830 --> 00:12:34,510 down possibly. I don't know. That's where Patrick and everybody else is going to, you know, 170 00:12:35,430 --> 00:12:42,350 come into that. So they haven't talked about any kind of contract.

But, you know, you're talking about a whole 351 00:24:59,340 --> 00:25:02,580 party of people needing to be involved to actually be able to 352 00:25:02,580 --> 00:25:05,140 get a tow truck in the someone's backyard when the people 353 00:25:05,140 --> 00:25:07,440 on there don't want the tow truck in their backyard. 354 00:25:08,380 --> 00:25:13,260 you know I mean it could just open up a can of one and then like I said I got 355 00:25:13,260 --> 00:25:17,100 it a hold of the Sheriff's Department and they have a list of tow companies 356 00:25:17,100 --> 00:25:23,700 that they use and I got a hold of all of them except for one and two of them 357 00:25:23,700 --> 00:25:28,540 flat out were like no I'm not interested in taking on the job one of them said well 358 00:25:28,540 --> 00:25:33,660 you guys are a little farther you know we're located in her lock and or near her 359 00:25:33,660 --> 00:25:38,300 lock and like I said and I didn't get a hold of one of them because at that point I had 360 00:25:38,300 --> 00:25:43,180 talked to I mean I don't know if I'm physically like throwing other towns out there but they 361 00:25:43,180 --> 00:25:47,280 just recommend like not even getting involved with it. They said they go through so much hassle 362 00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:52,480 with it that they basically gave up the enforcement of doing it. So 363 00:25:57,410 --> 00:26:00,970 I think personally if we're 364 00:26:00,970 --> 00:26:07,330 going to explore the avenue of getting vehicles removed off of people's property we maybe lean 365 00:26:07,330 --> 00:26:17,450 towards the finding aspect, in my opinion, just to eliminate overall hassle, overall, 366 00:26:18,310 --> 00:26:26,290 you know, conflicts happening. I mean, I don't, I think you have to, you can target 367 00:26:26,290 --> 00:26:31,690 it, but it's only for like six months. Yeah, it's a temporary thing and you have to go 368 00:26:31,690 --> 00:26:32,430 through the town. 369 00:26:35,630 --> 00:26:39,910 Right, I don't want to misquote, but it's basically yes. It's 370 00:26:39,910 --> 00:26:40,790 something like that. 371 00:26:55,820 --> 00:27:00,280 I believe that's going to be our kind of like step one, you 372 00:27:00,280 --> 00:27:05,420 know, but as it's written now, that only allows you about six months, I think, to 373 00:27:05,420 --> 00:27:10,660 have like, but in your case if you have tags on it, it doesn't matter. Yeah. This is 374 00:27:10,660 --> 00:27:16,420 more for like, you know, untagged junk cars, housing rodents, you know, the whole 375 00:27:16,420 --> 00:27:17,040 thing just. 376 00:27:19,940 --> 00:27:25,580 I guess we're looking to doing a fine then or do a, I guess a warning 377 00:27:25,580 --> 00:27:30,620 letter first and then the next step is a fine. Yeah. I mean, I think any, you know, 378 00:27:30,700 --> 00:27:35,280 there was a few things me and Melissa came up with as a system of, you know, 379 00:27:35,280 --> 00:27:43,040 morning and then next step, next step. You know, going either way, but I think maybe bring it up the next 380 00:27:43,040 --> 00:27:51,020 meeting next month. Okay. And then we'll do it from there. All right. New business. Introduction and vote on 381 00:27:51,020 --> 00:28:02,360 resolution number 2026-03 are a data center moratorium. All right. Thank you. Thank you. Before I start, let me 382 00:28:02,360 --> 00:28:11,620 We offered this claimer, Caroline Review, very generously made me a data center expert. 383 00:28:11,860 --> 00:28:12,440 I am not. 384 00:28:13,180 --> 00:28:17,060 I underscore exclamation point in any form of data center expert. 385 00:28:18,520 --> 00:28:24,840 I did spend a lot of time in IT as we all know, and yes, I did build out a data center 386 00:28:24,840 --> 00:28:31,840 as part of a larger program 20 years ago, but in the technology world, that's like comparing 387 00:28:31,840 --> 00:28:39,520 muscled loaders to machine guns today. There's no comparison. So with that being said, 388 00:28:41,180 --> 00:28:48,820 let me go through this resolution. Specifically, a moratorium on data centers in the town 389 00:28:48,820 --> 00:28:54,660 of Ridgley. A resolution of the commissioners of Ridgley adopting a temporary moratorium 390 00:28:54,660 --> 00:29:00,060 on the processing of applications for data centers within the corporate limits of the town 391 00:29:00,060 --> 00:29:05,860 of Ridgeley for a period of 12 months pending study, consideration, and the enactment of 392 00:29:05,860 --> 00:29:11,480 local laws and regulations regarding data centers to protect the public health, safety, 393 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:12,360 and welfare. 394 00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:19,040 Whereas, as a local jurisdiction under Division I of the Land Use article of the Giannotated 395 00:29:19,040 --> 00:29:26,600 Code of Maryland, the town of Ridgeley here and here and after the town exercises planning 396 00:29:26,600 --> 00:29:31,820 Planning and Zoning Authority maintains a planning commission and this is wrong, a board 397 00:29:31,820 --> 00:29:35,200 of appeals, we do not have a board of appeals. 398 00:29:36,680 --> 00:29:42,920 And a zoning administrator and has adopted a zoning ordinance and a comprehensive plan 399 00:29:42,920 --> 00:29:52,840 and whereas pursuant to Maryland code annotated environment, subsection 9-704, etc., the commissioners 400 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:58,620 of Ridgeley, exercise authority over the Extension Maintenance and Operation of Municipal 401 00:29:58,620 --> 00:29:59,880 Water and Sewer Service. 402 00:30:00,000 --> 00:30:29,880 Mayors to land within and adjacent to its corporate limits. And whereas the construction and operation of data centers raises significant concerns for the communities in which they are located, including sustainability, energy and water usage, noise, vibration, and impacts on residents' quality of life. And whereas on July 21, 2026, the Caroline commissioners of Caroline, are the county commissioners of Caroline County. 403 00:30:29,880 --> 00:30:37,340 adopted resolution 2026-012 for the purpose of imposing a temporary moratorium of 404 00:30:37,340 --> 00:30:42,140 one year on data centers pending submission of a data center report and 405 00:30:42,140 --> 00:30:46,600 consideration and adoption of such legislation as the county commissioners 406 00:30:46,600 --> 00:30:52,200 may consider advisable to promote public health safety and welfare which 407 00:30:52,200 --> 00:30:58,200 resolution applies within the unincorporated areas of Caroline County but not 408 00:30:58,200 --> 00:31:04,240 within the town and whereas development interests that cannot be pursued in the 409 00:31:04,240 --> 00:31:10,380 unincorporated areas of Caroline County during the moratorium period may be 410 00:31:10,380 --> 00:31:14,940 directed toward the town and other incorporated municipalities within 411 00:31:14,940 --> 00:31:20,680 Caroline County and whereas the town's municipal wastewater system has a 412 00:31:20,680 --> 00:31:31,300 design capacity of 200,000 gallons per day, GPDs, of which 127,000 gallons are currently 413 00:31:31,300 --> 00:31:40,320 available and 87,900 are committed, leaving an excess of 39,100 gallons per day. 414 00:31:41,020 --> 00:31:48,720 And whereas the town's municipal water system has a design capacity, also of 200,000 gallons 415 00:31:48,720 --> 00:31:57,540 per day, of which 104,000 are currently available, and 87-9 are currently committed, leading 416 00:31:57,540 --> 00:32:01,760 in excess of 16,100 gallons per day, 417 00:32:06,440 --> 00:32:10,420 and whereas the finite capacity of the town's municipal 418 00:32:10,420 --> 00:32:16,380 water and sewer systems planned and financed for residential and small commercial and industrial 419 00:32:16,380 --> 00:32:22,420 growth consistent with the comprehensive plan, the connection of a single data center could 420 00:32:22,420 --> 00:32:29,320 commit or exceed capacity needed therefor and whereas the commissioners find a temporary 421 00:32:29,320 --> 00:32:35,320 moratorium of 12 months subject to the terms and conditions set forth in this resolution 422 00:32:35,560 --> 00:32:42,500 is the minimum study period reasonably necessary to receive and evaluate the Caroline County 423 00:32:42,500 --> 00:32:48,680 Data Center study to coordinate with Caroline County and other municipalities within its boundaries 424 00:32:48,680 --> 00:32:55,660 and to prepare, notice here and enact appropriate laws and regulations regarding data centers. 425 00:32:56,780 --> 00:33:01,740 Now, therefore, it be hereby resolved by the commissioners of Ridgeley and it goes on. 426 00:33:02,980 --> 00:33:17,740 Now, what this means in English is that as the demand for data center spaces expected to 427 00:33:17,740 --> 00:33:20,280 triple by 2030. 428 00:33:24,420 --> 00:33:31,880 And there is a lot of emotion around this. There's a lot of information going on around this. 429 00:33:32,420 --> 00:33:47,960 Some of it is accurate, but much of it is not, unfortunately. So this is an immensely complex topic involving environmental considerations 430 00:33:47,960 --> 00:33:58,800 and unfortunately, they do not, those considerations do not stop at Ridgeley's corporate boundaries. 431 00:34:00,840 --> 00:34:14,080 And it really ties into, I'll use a word, interdependencies among all of the geographic areas, 432 00:34:14,080 --> 00:34:23,580 is not only within Caroline County, but across the Eastern Shore because if originally adopts 433 00:34:24,680 --> 00:34:37,540 a very strict set of standards and another town a few miles away doesn't then any potential 434 00:34:37,540 --> 00:34:45,260 data center builder is going to go to the less restrictive area. The challenge, though, 435 00:34:45,660 --> 00:34:53,460 is that that less restrictive area is going to affect the same aquifer from which we draw water 436 00:34:54,560 --> 00:35:03,500 and virtually every most towns in this county similarly they'll hit the same electrical substations. 437 00:35:05,220 --> 00:35:14,460 So coordination among all of the incorporated municipalities and the county is, in my opinion, 438 00:35:14,820 --> 00:35:15,100 vital. 439 00:35:17,580 --> 00:35:29,920 So what I'm going to ask is at least my preliminary recommendation. And as my wife will tell you, 440 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:35,160 I've been involved in this for the last three and a half weeks, burning a lot of time, 441 00:35:37,900 --> 00:35:44,420 but certainly the decision making must reside within the commissioners of Ridgeley. 442 00:35:44,760 --> 00:35:47,280 What we ultimately decide has to be ours. 443 00:35:47,920 --> 00:35:56,980 The challenge, though, is that there is a lot of work that affects everyone. 444 00:35:56,980 --> 00:36:14,720 and that work having to do with load basically electrical load and water capacity and all is not only difficult to do it's expensive to do. 445 00:36:15,460 --> 00:36:26,640 So what I'm going to propose is that as long as your gentlemen are going to agreement I'm willing to take the lead on this. 446 00:36:26,640 --> 00:36:34,810 Now, I'm putting together a program management plan right now. 447 00:36:34,810 --> 00:36:57,010 It's about 22 pages long that will govern what we do, and how we reach out to other governmental agencies within the county and work to get a draft ordinance 448 00:36:57,010 --> 00:37:06,030 in front of this commission by next April that's a very tight timeline but I 449 00:37:06,030 --> 00:37:13,910 think it is doable so this pretty much shadows the counties very much it's 450 00:37:13,910 --> 00:37:18,590 very similar to what the county is doing. I'm good with proposing the the 451 00:37:18,590 --> 00:37:26,190 moratorium okay well since I introduced it I think I'm going to reuse myself 452 00:37:26,190 --> 00:37:28,070 with at least making a motion on that. 453 00:37:28,450 --> 00:37:30,990 Make a motion to vote on resolution number, 454 00:37:31,150 --> 00:37:34,610 2026-03, data center, moratorium. 455 00:37:35,130 --> 00:37:35,610 Second. 456 00:37:36,570 --> 00:37:37,310 All in favor. 457 00:37:37,550 --> 00:37:37,770 Aye. 458 00:37:38,570 --> 00:37:39,210 I'll 459 00:37:43,180 --> 00:37:49,900 just to close that out as soon as I get this program plan 460 00:37:49,900 --> 00:37:52,920 together, I will share it with everyone. 461 00:37:53,860 --> 00:37:57,260 And the last thing we have on new business is bid selection 462 00:37:57,260 --> 00:38:00,000 for energy outlets of municipal buildings. 463 00:38:03,500 --> 00:38:05,840 I have the big packets that I gave to you. 464 00:38:06,060 --> 00:38:07,540 You have to have time to let review them. 465 00:38:09,800 --> 00:38:12,520 There are some big differences in them. 466 00:38:13,120 --> 00:38:13,500 Definitely. 467 00:38:14,140 --> 00:38:21,320 But this is the grant that we got from the energy, the MEEI, 468 00:38:21,940 --> 00:38:24,620 to be able to do these energy audits. 469 00:38:25,200 --> 00:38:26,820 So it is funded by grant funding 470 00:38:26,820 --> 00:38:27,860 A 471 00:38:32,020 --> 00:38:40,060 couple of thoughts real quick.
