Vantage
Families in Texas Research Park off 211 say they moved to far west Bexar County for fresh air. Instead, they say they got the smell of rotting eggs drifting over from the Vantage Data Center across the street, strong enough, according to their HOA rep, to make people violently nauseous near the playground and pool. Residents say they never got a letter, a notice or any heads up that the facility was coming.
KSAT's Olivia Dague talked to neighbors and to the company, which gave an explanation for the odor that has some residents asking why nobody told them anything at all.
