• Proposed data center in Taylor draws pushback from community (fox7austin.com) — A billion-dollar data center proposed for southeast Taylor is facing organized pushback from residents who want the land preserved for park use and stricter rules on noise, water, and environmental impacts. Supporters in city and school leadership say the project could generate tens of millions for tax relief, infrastructure, and schools, while a new citizen coalition has delivered a 14,000-signature petition and ordinance proposal to Taylor City Council.
