Kristin Meyer prioritizes infrastructure, data center pause, water, schools in campaign for House District 50
Utah House District 50 candidate Kristin Meyer says infrastructure is her top priority and supports pausing new data center approvals until stronger safeguards are established. She calls for transparency about projects' water and energy demands, public input, and requiring developers to cover related infrastructure costs.
Kristin Meyer, a Democratic candidate for Utah House District 50, said infrastructure, water, schools and government accountability would be central priorities if elected. Drawing on her experience living in Eagle Mountain, she argued that housing growth should be tied to funded roads and other infrastructure.
Meyer also supports a pause on new data center approvals while Utah establishes stronger safeguards. She said residents should receive clear information about projects' water and energy use, have meaningful opportunities for public input, and require developers to pay for costs created by their projects. Her position was presented as part of a Daily Herald candidate survey covering issues affecting Eagle Mountain, Cedar Fort, Fairfield and Genola.
