Small-town Texas rebels against data centers in growing backlash$

Residents in Granbury, Texas, are actively opposing data center developments like Project Patriot, citing concerns over noise, air quality, and electricity costs. Despite local complaints, the Granbury City Council approved rezoning for Project Patriot, leading to lawsuits against the city and a Bitcoin mining facility. Meanwhile, neighboring Hill County has enacted a one-year moratorium on such projects.
