Potential data center boom in Caldwell County raises concerns

Caldwell County, Texas, is facing a potential surge in data center development, with residents expressing concerns about the impact on their land and quality of life. County Judge Hoppy Hayden acknowledges the interest from four companies but notes that only one project is currently set for construction. The county, lacking zoning authority, is pursuing responsible development through tax abatement agreements that include water-saving and dark sky protection requirements.
