Wheeling residents seek answers on proposed data center as council says no vote pending

Residents in Wheeling, West Virginia, are seeking answers regarding a proposed 10-megawatt data center project by Silicon Foundations. Despite community concerns and a public hearing, the City Council states there is currently no zoning change or related matter before them for a vote, as the transaction is between private entities. Residents expressed frustration over the perceived lack of engagement and desire for pre-emptive restrictions on data center development.
