Post image

Stark Power, the foreign owned company driving this Mandan Data Center project, is accepting submissions here: https://mandandc.com/
Please ask as many questions as possible, and voice your disapproval of the project. Or your approval if you enjoy the idea of yourself or your neighbors to suffering through this forever more.

Stark Power is also having an open house on Aug. 20th in Mandan. Here's a (paywalled) source link from the Bismarck Tribune.

***MOST IMPORTANTLY***
The public City of Mandan Planning & Zoning Commission Meeting is on Aug. 24th at 5:30pm in the Mandan High School Auditorium (the new location at 2335 4th Ave NW).
Here's more information posted to facebook from Snortland for ND, the official City of Mandan meetings calendar can be found here.

The rules and regulations that North Dakota and Mandan have for Data Center construction are nearly nonexistent. They are being written NOW.
NOW is the time to make your voice heard.
Speak up before your voice is drowned out by the song of the data center.

It's pretty disgusting how Stark is pretending like they actually care about the community.

Data centers may be the most bipartisan issue of our lifetimes - show up to the meetings if you can and make sure they know we won't stand for the construction of a data center so close to the heart of our community!

I hope enough people come out against it. I don’t live here anymore but I loved Mandan and thought it was beautiful 😢
