Joliet council delays vote on data centre project after marathon hearing
The Joliet City Council delayed a vote on a proposed 795-acre data center campus after a marathon public hearing that lasted over 7 hours. The project, called the Joliet Technology Center, is expected to generate 7,000-10,000 construction jobs but faces significant opposition from residents concerned about water and energy use, land use, and noise. The council is scheduled to reconvene on Thursday to continue deliberations.
