On August 4, the Michigan City Common Council voted to table resolutions for one month. In September, the council will vote to designate a data center under construction at 402 Royal Road, dubbed "Project Maize," within the Economic Revitalization Area and grant it local tax abatements.
Join us in demanding transparency and accountability from our elected officials. There has been a complete lack of public process regarding this data center. The fast-tracking of these resolutions, the amount of money being thrown around (including a gift of $1 million to the Economic Development Corporation of Michigan City), the ever-mounting unanswered questions (including what company will operate the data center), and the non-disclosure agreements have made it impossible to have a true dialogue with Michigan City communities.
Join us in calling for a pause on all data center buildout in Michigan City. It’s not too late to make your voice heard. Help us pack the council meeting at the September vote!
