Summary
Morton County is moving fast to draft a data center ordinance before any are built, sparking heated debate over light pollution and bird migration—despite no current plans outside Mandan. At a packed zoning meeting, residents clashed: some demanded strict shielding rules, others hoped data centers never come to town. The commission is revising the draft based on public feedback, with a key update slated for August 19th. Meanwhile, Mandan’s rumored developer project is still in early stages, with community input being prioritized before any decisions are made.
