Data center moves forward after Fort Worth Zoning Commission vote

The Fort Worth Zoning Commission approved site plan and signage changes for Black Mountain Energy's planned $10 million data center, despite ongoing resident opposition. The project, which includes a 980-megawatt substation and aims for a decreased footprint with taller buildings, will now go before the City Council for a final vote in June. Residents continue to raise concerns about pollution, infrastructure impact, and environmental health.
