Pawhuska Council Puts the Brakes on Possible Data Center
Ty Loftis
At Tuesday's evening's city council meeting in Pawhuska, council members had the option to provide a letter to Buckley Bros. Holdings, LLC showing they wanted to move forward with the data center. Another agenda item included placing a moratorium on the possible data center through the end of the year.
After hearing from nine members of the audience, they denied sending the load guarantee letter by a 5-0 vote and approved the moratorium through the end of the year by a 3-2 vote.
Here is what Mayor Steve Tolson said on his reasoning for voting against sending the company a load guarantee letter.
Pawhuska resident Alex DeRoin gave his take on why he thought the council needed to place a moratorium on the data center.
The proposed data center would be across from Indian Camp Elementary School.
