Yukon officials face recall petition over data center policies

Joe Horn has filed a recall petition against Yukon Mayor Brian Pillmore and Vice Mayor Jeff Wootton, citing ongoing public complaints about the city's data center policies. Residents are concerned about the proposed Belt Line Energy data center's impact on electricity rates and the local water supply. The city council had previously adopted a data center zoning ordinance and contracted to sell land for the project, fueling citizen opposition.
