The proposed facility, intended to house rows of humming servers near the Four Corners corridor, has sparked significant debate regarding its electricity consumption and its aesthetic compatibility with our local hay fields.</p> <p>The group, known as Concerned Neighbors for Quiet Fields, successfully collected over 4,000 signatures to force a public vote. However, the county clerk’s office announced yesterday that the initiative will not appear on the ballot. The reason provided centers on the specific chemical composition of the ink used on the petition forms.</p>
