## Resource

Citrus County, Florida, considers a one-year moratorium on AI data centers amidst community concerns about resource strain and lack of benefits. Residents like Dell Kelleher and Del Wray advocate for AI tech without local hardware. Commissioner Diana Finegan supports the pause for research and long-term protection. The new law gives local governments control over data centers and ensures companies pay for power and water. Support the show: Get a discount at https://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
