## Resource

Lawrence residents are sounding the alarm on data centers before they even arrive, pushing for a moratorium amid fears of skyrocketing energy use, water waste, noise, and strain on local utilities. With lax city rules allowing industrial-zone builds without oversight on size, water, or energy, a new group called the Douglas County Data Center Watchdogs is mobilizing—with seasoned local leaders—to educate the public and demand smarter, community-centered policies before the next big development hits.
