Finally some politicians with a hint of having a spine and doing what their constituents want.
It just means the bribe wasn’t big enough this time around.
I don’t get how any tech companies think they will incentives citys when they have been shown to deplete almost all water sources wherever they are built. Amazon being a notorious negotiators of tax incentives, they are likely looking for sucker city’s.
Edit. Also, what absolutely massive brain decided one of the hottest states in the us would be a good place to put a building sized heat sink.

You could even do district heating. Use the hot water output from the data centre and sell it cheap for piping into appartment blocks for heating.
See now you’re thinking way too progressive. If its not raping the environment, you’re doing it wrong.
Good idea, but corporations arent usually in the business of taking care of towns or workers.
It is done, but apparently district heating is not commonplace everywhere in the World.
