Good day to all. This is April 26, August 25, Coffey County Planning Commission Yoga. Welcome everyone. I am now starting yoga. Let's start with the opinions of the public. Does anyone have anything to say? Please come forward and say your name and speak. Good day to all. My name is Dr. Keith Ittiel. Everyone calls me Keith. I have already signed in. To give you a reference, the board had asked me to give you something. That is... This is mainly about the Coffey County Data Center reference. I have created a very interesting 8-page article about data centers that explains many things. What is a data center? Internet cloud data centers. What are their types? These are all state-of-the-art things. By the way, I'm not saying that any particular type will be available for Kofi County. In addition, medical standards, watts and kilowatts are described in this. I have taught electrical and mechanical engineering. So I can give everyone an idea about this. Medical infrastructure, what is the grid, how does this change? Such things. Things that are necessary for data centers. Reliability, more facilities, water to cool. As someone said last time, data centers often need a lot of water. It is not like that now. Data centers are developing very fast. I have been in this field for 30 or 40 years. The old ways are not the same now. Things are changing. Data centers are now filled with news. That's why they have to make changes. That's why the use of water falls into it. Technology, network communication, and voice recognition are also important. It is true that data centers have a bad reputation, but there are big changes in them now. In addition, there are some more things about the website and the credit cards. There are five questions to remember on the next page. I had examined your M2 zoning methods. You will have to differentiate how data centers should be set up. But how big will it be? How many facilities will be required? What is going out of the place? What will happen if anything goes wrong? Instead, what will Coffey County get? You have to decide that. Another thing I have to write down is that I have a list of measures for data centers. Some things to be included in the zoning appeal request. It contains the sounds, water, and the waterfalls. Those are the things. Whether you have other questions or whether I can improve your knowledge on this matter or whether you are interested in asking more questions, I am not sure. However, I am very happy to help. I am a resident of Kofi County. I have a lot of knowledge on this matter, so I am very happy to help you. I will do everything possible. Can you stay here until the yoga is over? Of course. Yes, of course. Good. It is always a good plan to ask your wife. Okay. No, definitely. Thank you very much. Welcome.

3:59Speaker 1

Yes, thank you for everything you have done, Keith.

4:03Speaker 2

Madam. What is your name, sir?

4:12 – 5:14Speaker 4

Ah, Marna Sheryl. I live in Amelia Drive. I would like to ask you two things that you think can be implemented in your cloud systems for AI data centers. But there is a problem that other communities do not use data centers and turbines. They say this is for the backup, or to believe what he said earlier, but then they operate for 364 days a year, or they use it for more than a backup in cases of medical failure. So I don't know if there's any way to protect it. Then, to give an example, an AI data center said there would be 16 turbines. I got permission for that, but then I realized that they brought about 968. They increased it as it came. Sometimes when they brought it, there was no permission from the local community. So they brought more than they intended. So some of the problems that I wanted to ask are these. Also, I don't know if it will be available before voting or if it will be available before voting. I think you planned it earlier in October. Thank you. Thank you madam.

5:21Speaker 2

If you can wait for the entire meeting, we have two things to do. After that, there will be a general discussion with our attorney. Okay. Yes, you can continue. Thank you very much.

5:30 – 5:52Speaker 3

Anyone else? We can move on to the three-minute acceptance. Is everyone allowed to read for three minutes? Minutes angigarikan nyan nirdeshikunnu.

5:53 – 6:12Speaker 2

Mun minutes angigarikan Ms. Laura Nettles ninna oru nirdesham lebichitunde. Pindunaikunnu. Ms. Laura Vasquez ninna oru pinduna lebichu. Nyan avasana perigal chertathu ningalku ishtapetto. Mun minutes angigarikan oru nirdeshavam pindunayam unda. Anugulikunnavar, ade, ennu parayuka.

6:13 – 6:27Speaker 2

Nyan edhirkunnu. Sheri, namukku agenda angigarikunnadu leki kadakkaam. Does anyone have a suggestion for accepting the agenda?

6:27Speaker 3

I have a suggestion to accept the agenda.

6:29 – 7:05Speaker 2

I have received a suggestion from Ms. Lauren Nettles to accept the agenda. I am nodding. I have received a nod from Ms. Anastasia to accept the agenda. Yes. Is there any discussion about it? If not, those who agree can say yes. Thank you. Now let's move on to my favourite. Bond Avalokanam. Still only on Creek Road. They are still working on it. That's right. This will take some time. We are one. That's right. That's right. Does anyone have any questions about that?

7:05Speaker 1

Tell us what he said because he didn't have a microphone in front of him. Curl construction on Cat Creek Road.

7:10 – 7:42Speaker 2

Bond on top coat. Thank you. Okay, let's move on. On the 7,648 Madhminville Highway, there is a final plot in Map Pujam 4-7, Parcel Pujam 5-1 Dashaamsham Pujam Pujam. Is there anyone to explain that? Oh yes, if I have read anything wrong, someone should correct me. Because I was in the combine all afternoon. My eyes are now very tired. Okay, thank you. I'm still crying.

7:49 – 9:03Speaker 1

I am Nicholas Northcutt, Northcutt Surveying. I represent the rights of the Friis Estate. This is Grady Friis Estate. This is a property. It is inside Summitville. When you cross Rock Road, go a little further to the restaurant on the right. This is a well. It is on the right. Mr. Freeze's daughters, as you know, Mr. Freeze passed away. Now his family is selling the farm and looking after it. Anyway, they want to cut down some of the places on the road and make some bigger places. That's why we're looking for this recognition today, that is, to build small places along the road. They have conducted a soil test with Tim Baxter, so the soil test has been completed for all. There is a septic tank in the house. Anyway, this is a very simple thing. I would be happy to answer any questions you have about this. That's a C1, C1, right? That's right. Yes sir.

9:14 – 9:26Speaker 2

Did you test it? Is everything right? Everything is right. Do you have anything to ask anyone? I will accept an opinion.

9:26Speaker 3

I am ready to accept. I am ready to accept the acceptance of Ms. Lauren Nettles.

9:32 – 9:45Speaker 2

Does anyone have a problem? I have a problem. I have a problem with Ms. Laura Vasquez. Is there more discussion about this issue? Those who agree, say yes.

9:45 – 10:01Speaker 1

Yes. Opponents? Agree. Can you explain to the people at home that these small places are not in the district? That's how it is. That's why the 5-acre reduction is not a problem. That's why I asked if it's a C1, C1. Let everyone know, this is in the middle of Summitville.

10:09 – 10:28Speaker 2

This is on the main road. On the main road itself. That's right. Are you standing here for the next one too? Right. We have the last plot on Mountain View Road. Map Poojam 8-7. Part Poojam 2-2. Deshamsham Poojam. Nick, you can talk.

10:29 – 11:19Speaker 1

I am representing Mr. Charles Miller for this. For your understanding, when you go through the Mound View Road, you can see the catwalk passing over the hillside. This is the opposite side of the fire lake. He wants to turn this into four parts. He has completed everything during the soil survey. This is also a C1, C1, and the rest of the fire lake seems to be C1, C1. Anyway, he wants to use the rest of his space. He has the rest of the space in that part, so he was going to cut it into four.

11:25Speaker 2

Does anyone have any questions? This is also a C1. You said it's a C1. I would like to repeat it one more time. Right. Right.

11:33Speaker 4

That's right.

11:33 – 11:50Speaker 2

That's good. That's good. Does anyone have any questions? If not, I can take it. It's important. This is the last one. This is the last one. Do you have any more questions? I need an answer.

11:52Speaker 4

Thank you, Nick. I appreciate it.

11:54 – 12:31Speaker 2

Thank you for your time. Okay, let's move on to the data center regulations. If no one is against it, Mark, I will now hand it over to you.

12:33 – 18:43Speaker 1

Stop. Chairman, I think we need to discuss this before we go into discussion. As the Mayor, I am announcing two provisions in the zoning agreement. I believe it should be approved immediately. Avide Oru. Vyakthamaya Vairudhyam Unde M2 Il. Kandika 9.4. Poojam 4.7 Nikiril. Poojam 4.7. Vairudhyam. M2 Ileke Onnu Nokkatte. Vairudhyam Unde Kandika D. Capital D. M2 Nikiril. There are uses that have been allowed as special limits. We have accepted this as a complete legislation under the Ubaridhala Ubaridhalam. Data items are included in it. If you turn a few pages to the ninth column below M2, the ninth column tells you about the uses that have been allowed as special limits. It is said that there is no use of using it as a special measure. That is a big problem. We need to re-identify the nine rules that have been completely avoided. In addition, there are three things that we need to quickly address here. They should be clear, but there will be discussions after you have agreed. But, the uses provided in Section B, as well as the uses provided in Section 7 and Section 9. Go back to the first page of Section M2. You have uses. We have two different types of uses. It does not work in Tamil, but it should work. So, under 4047, I would like to request you to discuss the first page of M2. There are eight possible uses for it, if you present them as examples. Then, if you go to the 7th page that I explained earlier, there are a few pages that are listed in small letters. 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8. As I said, they are not doing it. In that, they are saying that the benefits, actions, and benefits are in small letters. In addition, the meaning of the two words is the same for me. But it is up to you to decide. But since we have two conditions that say that use is permissible, I think we need a condition that says that use is permissible. The first one says M2, and the second one says Adult Bookstore, but the seventh one I mentioned doesn't say Adult Bookstore. So I think that they should be eliminated and one should be removed. But I think that the use of accessibility is usually below the description of the district in our zoning decision. So I think it should continue there. But we need to avoid the other. But if you feel that you need to change something from the other, that would be fine. Furthermore, the third thing I would like to mention is that our C1 is being translated into the rural center district. There is a very detailed description of where the C1 properties should be. It is said to be on the roads that are either arterial or collector. Our map is directly related to this language, because we have a map that shows the C1 properties in rural roads. So my solution, I think this is the easiest solution, is to name all the C1 properties in rural roads as residential and C1R. All C1 properties in arterial collector roads must be named as 1. C means Residential. It means residential. It means residential. It means residential. It was more than you could imagine. But I think this is a simple solution for them. Amanda, do you have anything to say about this? Amanda is our professional planner. If you have anything to say about this... The C-1 I prepared this afternoon, the language I included in the description, if anyone here thinks, Anna, did you get a reply to my suggestion? Yes, sir. Anyway, that's my opinion.

18:51 – 19:38Speaker 2

I want you to act on it now, because it will not take more time than our data center discussion. Have you all understood the first problem? That is, the ninth principle below 4.4.7.47. In connection with the re-enactment of the clause mentioned below, Consolidate Uses Permitted, Section B, Clause 7 shall be amended, and Clause 7 shall be completely revoked. On the basis of this, there is some confusion. What Dennis did here, what the Mayor did here, I think it will be corrected. If anyone has any opinion on this, please share it with us.

19:47Speaker 1

In reality, what Cindy Chundi said in our Courts Office is that it is not necessary to list two legal uses under a zoning district. They are not the same. One of them has to be removed. I think it is the second one.

19:57 – 20:08Speaker 2

I think it is the second one because it is combined with the rest of the provisions of the Act. We also have legal activities and related services.

20:16Speaker 1

That's why I don't know if we need to use quare actions and the use of canons. I think that if we go to the nirvajanam, it will reflect on the canons there. But that's not it. Amanda, you are right. This is where you need to put the horse. Yes.

20:28Speaker 2

So we definitely need that.

20:41 – 20:52Speaker 1

In our religion, there is a term called Kananapravarthanam. That is correct. That is why it is called Kananapravarthanam. That is why I don't think it is wrong. Does anyone else have anything to say about this?

20:52 – 22:17Speaker 2

Let me put one more thing forward. If we are doing it, we... Did you talk about Kandika 8? About Kandika 8? It is generally the same for all of them. In the beginning, what you are saying is correct. The only difference I noticed when I looked at it quickly is that there is a letter in it. When we look at the end of reason number 8, it says that the uses are carried out in one place and that the other side is not restricted. Then, the word not is left behind. It only says, and are otherwise prohibited. Then, do you want to remove 8? No, we have to agree on that language. I will remove 8. Then, number 10 becomes number 7. In your opinion, is the word not wrong? Definitely 8. I think we need to add NOT. I think it's right. Right. Yes. If we are doing it, we need to add NOT. Absolutely.

22:17 – 22:51Speaker 1

It's right. And NOT otherwise prohibited. Yes. Thank you for paying attention. So, what is your suggestion to correct this? What is to be avoided?

22:51 – 23:14Speaker 2

When you remove 9 of the 8 signs in 4.4.7, that is, you have to rename it. You have to rename it from 10 to 7. Also, you have to remove the 7th sign completely. That's right. So, you have to remove 7, 8, and 9. Then it turns out to be 17. Correct. Then?

23:14Speaker 1

If I'm not mistaken, this is the common language seen by all zoning districts. Then, before the other side of C is denied, I'll add the word not.

23:22Speaker 2

Yes. Do you have any other questions? Do you have any questions about this?

23:44 – 24:47Speaker 1

That's what I think we should do. I understand that. Do we have to vote for each one of them? If no one wants to interfere in the discussion, I don't think that's necessary. The decision of the community is whether each one wants to vote or not. Or C1, the third one below the language change. Everyone must understand that this is a word in the district description. Correct. One word is omitted. As shown in the main road plan in the county, the word that says that this district is only allowed on roads separated by collector or arterial. Perfection. That word will be removed. Instead, this word will come.

24:50Speaker 2

You don't have to be on roads like C1-R. That's right. C1-R. C1-R. Anything can happen. Anything or anything.

25:06 – 25:25Speaker 1

But now, if the Code Enforcement Office investigates a person's place of residence and asks if it is on Arterial Road, they will say, yes, this is C1-R. C1-C can still be residential, right?

25:27Speaker 2

That's right.

25:28Speaker 1

Please lower your microphone.

25:30 – 25:42Speaker 3

Even if a property is restored, this will be a problem, right? For example, if someone wants to restore the C1 to C1, even if it is not on the road, they will still be counted as C1R.

25:42Speaker 4

What if it is not an arterial collector?

25:51 – 26:17Speaker 1

That makes it clear. This is the easiest way to improve the language and mass of our body. I don't have the permission to show it to you, but I can say that some of the rural roads in this book are not allowed in this book. C1 is a residential application. So, I don't think there is a need for further investigation. That solves that problem.

26:17Speaker 2

Yes, it is solved very easily. Which road are you on? If you are on any of the roads on our C1 border, you can build a house there.

26:23Speaker 1

If you are on a road, and you want to carry out an application like C1, you should be an arterial collector. So, using this language, we both show a difference in Tamil.

26:42 – 27:11Speaker 2

Does anyone else have any questions about this? Does everyone understand what we are trying to do? Okay, let me make a promise that I will accept these changes. She will sign. Okay. Forgive me. Or send her to the commission with a good proposal. Okay. That's right. That's right. Yes. We have to give her approval.

27:11Speaker 3

After that. Yes. Certainly. I have a proposal to approve these changes. A proposal has been received from Ms. Lauren Nettles to approve these two changes. Does anyone want to approve this?

27:20 – 29:29Speaker 2

I will approve. I have approved. Is there any discussion? That was Ms. Anna Gonzalez. Did you hear? So, those who agree, say yes. Yes. Opponents? Okay. Thank you for that. Next. Mark, are you ready to begin? Certainly, Mr. Chairman. I'm not sure if I gave everyone a red line copy. A copy that included your opinions and opinions in our last meeting. And, Even now, there are some issues related to electricity that are still a bit questionable. As far as I know, I am trying to find out what is the best way. Nothing much. We are at the beginning of this. We are looking to see if it is approved by Duck River or ITV or if they need their own power source. According to the reason, some data centers are doing so now. And if they don't use the full power they make. They are selling it back to the local community. So, I still had that question, as well as the last time there was a discussion about the Reclamation Bond. If one uses a place, there can be a single battery used for backup power. About how to remove it, or how to handle it, Those were the two important questions I still had. But I wanted to make you understand how things work. In the last yoga, I made everyone's opinions the basis.

29:42Speaker 3

Mark, this is what we tested in the last yoga session. I understood what you did. We are avoiding the ones that are cut in red. That's right. The ones that are cut in red are newly added.

29:51 – 33:37Speaker 2

I understood. Okay. So you can see the changes. So when you read this, read the words that are cut in red. Don't read. Thank you. I know that this can cause some anxiety for those who are not used to looking at it this way. Mr. Keith, sorry, Dr. Keith. Ah! How quickly do we change to closed-loop methods that use anything other than water? Will you please come closer to the mic, Deva? This question is based on how fast closed-loop methods like closed-loop will make things work using anything other than water. At present, water is very harmful to data centers. Usually, they use glycol and water together. Usually, now, they do things like cooling down chips, or use air conditioners. They only use water to cool them down horizontally. It goes to the atmosphere very quickly. If a data center in Kofi County is built, I think it will take four or five years to build it. By then, the educational system will have changed. What I read now, Next, data centers are changing from chilled water systems very quickly. So, I don't know if this answers your question. I don't think it's a big deal, but I think they are changing right now. This is also the case with medical devices. It has been found that 6 to 11 terawatt medical devices are required for TV. They are also conducting a prototype according to that. So now they are implementing it. Thank you. Is this the answer to your question? As much as you can. Okay. Thank you. You may have to get up at least once or twice a day, but thank you for that. Then the chairman. Certainly. I think this is it. As things develop, time will have to change. However, if someone submits an order to a data center in Kofi County, I believe that the aim is to ensure that they have at least some of the values they need to maintain. So, from the last meeting, the only two things I wanted to add were, I made a lot of observations that there are enclosures in different counties, and as you know, all generators should be closed, whether it is a special building or part of a permanent building. I don't remember if it was in Pramayya. So, that is something to be considered. It is related to the generators that have backup power.

33:37Speaker 4

Yes, all generators should be closed for any backup operations. Therefore, they have made special locks for it or it should be part of the lock. They have to handle the smoke inside.

33:47 – 34:16Speaker 2

So, one of the things you discussed in this, I am trying to make sure that everything is going well. In power outage situations, generators could not operate for more than 72 hours. That's right. So, will it be both? Or, will there be no noise about the generators by closing and handling the smoke? The reason I'm asking is... I don't know, but I think they should have a limit. You know, right?

34:16 – 34:54Speaker 1

Use a walk-up-powered system and close it. Therefore, if they are operating in a short time, even if it is a temporary restriction, they are still in a closed environment, it reduces noise and smoke to a large extent, but that is up to your decision. If it was my decision, I would have done both. The sound system will need to be n-closure based. Okay, okay, okay. I will tell you.

35:02Speaker 3

We have two restrictions, but we allow both. But I think it's better if there are two.

35:17 – 36:04Speaker 1

Metro Davidson County was closed for a long time, and there were no public hospitals for weeks. If we tell a data center to stop your generators there, I think there should be some kind of agreement there. If there are general utilities available, it will increase the time. In India, a storm has hit and affected some of the communities there. I forgot the name of the city, but they haven't heard back in two weeks. So, I think if we don't get public services, there will be a delay in the process. That's why.

36:04Speaker 3

Yes, if we don't get the medicine, I can understand. That's why I think we should end this. That's why.

36:10 – 37:32Speaker 2

I don't think this is a bad intention. No, I don't have a problem with that. I want to make sure I'm right. I want to make sure you're right. Yes, sir. I can talk again. 72 hours of sleep is very common. It is also necessary for many services. As far as sound is concerned, there are many ways to control it. You are right to say that it can be controlled using hospital-grade silencers and devices. It has been improved so far. Things like health restrictions. There are health restrictions in many places. Health is essential for data centers. If this is the case, there are many other things that can happen in data centers such as flooding. In such situations, the Medical Board subconsciously controls the medical system. Data centers can easily operate using less medical equipment. I don't know if I answered your question, or if it was helpful. As I said, don't be too comfortable. Go and sit there. Aha. Did you get it, Mark?

37:32Speaker 3

I got it. Okay.

37:33 – 39:10Speaker 2

In the beginning, we can talk about the distance we talked about. I think we are 300 feet away from here. I've read a lot. I'd like to hear what Dr. Keith is saying. Aha! The sound is definitely affecting agriculture and wild animals. I doubt if 300 feet is enough. Last night, when I saw a football game, I was sitting on one side. I could hear clearly what was happening on the other side. That's about 300 feet. I'm not sure if that's enough. Let's make it 500 feet and increase it. Listen to what others say. From the edges of the earth. Is that it? Is it 500 feet below the parcel line? That's right. Therefore, if there is a system that makes another sound in the next parcel, it will be at least 1000 feet or less than 800 feet below. I have a suggestion. Does anyone have any solutions to this? I have an idea. I think... I have seen that in many places and in many counties, 500 feet is considered to be the limit. And then?

39:10 – 39:44Speaker 4

How big do you think the data center will be? We can open it, mark it, and write it in a way that will allow changes to occur. If that centre is very big, we can come to more places if necessary. I don't know how to do that. What are your opinions? Do you need a chair to sit on?

39:44 – 41:00Speaker 2

We can come for a chair. I can send it to John. The decisions about the set box are now yours. Data centers are changing, so they don't make as much noise as they used to. Everything that started at 500 feet, 1000 feet, are practical options. This will definitely help the data center. Another thing to note is how much noise is made by cooling systems and electrical appliances. Last week or last month, I heard people talking about how to record noise. Any certified acoustic engineer will be able to measure from subsonic sounds to audible sounds. You must verify and confirm that. Make sure that they are sure of what the data center authorities have said. For example, check the sound of the generators as well. Make them responsible for the accident. Therefore, a specific incident is required. That's what zoning laws mean. Or they will prohibit it. Do you have any questions? Mark, does that language affect it? Yes, I'm trying. One more thing, what were your distances? Was it 500? We talked about 300 less.

41:00Speaker 1

But now I think 500 is a good distance. Is that even from another M2 parcel? That's from the parcel line. Isn't it?

41:18Speaker 2

I'm saying that if there was another M2 facility nearby, would you still need 500? I think that's the best option.

41:27 – 41:42Speaker 4

If the next parcel is 150 feet below the parcel line, you would still need 650. If the next one is a residential property, would you still need 500 or increase it?

41:52Speaker 2

I want it to be more than 500 feet away. Residential. Residential.

42:08Speaker 3

That is, if it is residential.

42:10 – 43:33Speaker 1

I want to say something now. M2, right, it is in our zoning resolution. Data centers should come in M2 itself. We have 8 pages for questions in M2. 8 pages. Even if you don't vote for this tonight, we have a good language for this. Even if you don't do it, if someone comes up with a data center plan, we'll be able to do it. We have 10 billion dollars of liability insurance. We have 95,000 dollars per acre as a vehicle. Most of this is for quarries and other uses. But I'm talking about eight pages. There are strict regulations. Therefore, we are safe with the language available in the state. But I think the language only available in the data center should be there. But if you read those eight pages, the data centers are also included in it.

43:33 – 43:44Speaker 2

Yes, there are errors in those eight pages. Everything is included in those eight pages. Yes, I thought the purpose here was to increase the clarity.

43:47 – 43:58Speaker 1

That's exactly what we need to do. But in this current situation, I don't think we should forget anything.

43:58 – 44:51Speaker 2

Okay, okay. There's one more thing. As Dr. Keith said, this is changing. It's changing very fast. As the medical system grows, it will increase even more. So, we are still talking a little unknowingly, aren't we? Certainly. Yes. That's why. In my opinion, our goal is to bring some improvements here, and we need to add some final things to our County Adornment. If necessary, we should have the opportunity to go back and make changes. Yes, I think we have to do this too. You will have to do it. We have that option. We are doing it right now. You, you.

44:52Speaker 1

You are ready to do it. Anastasia, you have learned this more than anyone else. Do you want it to be 500 feet or 1000 feet from the top of the hill? I think it will be enough to prevent any resistance.

45:02Speaker 2

We have to make it a little more logical.

45:18 – 45:29Speaker 4

This is a little far away, but if we get the information that it is not enough, it will help to expand the cities and counties. What kind of evidence do we have? Does everyone agree on 500 feet? Shall we move forward?

45:29 – 49:50Speaker 2

Okay, Mark, did you understand that? Understood. I don't think we need to talk about the landscape buffer. I think the mic and the mark are very good. So we are going to operate. The distance and the screening and fencing are the same. That is, we are talking about things within 300 feet of the public road. If the road is blocked, it will be 500 feet away from you. I think we should change that. That is a strong thing. That's why we talked about a sound studio or a sound level estimator made by a professional in the sound department. You had set decibels in the days, nights and weekends. That is, that. It was actually in the ground, but I don't know. What do you have to say about those specific numbers? I don't know if Dr. Keith has any comment on that. That is, the maximum decibel during the day was 67. The decibel at night and in the evening is 57. Is it DBA? It seems illogical. Is it a lie in your view, sir? Yes, that's it. Forgive me. Yes, that's it. That's a standstill. We have to measure it. Then we can say, oh, do you need a replacement? I can use my screen. Then we needed the AAS built study, because we don't know what it will be until it is completed. Until it is completed, until it is completed, and then it is one part. If the measurements are correct, it will be counted as a part of the zoning decision. If so, we will have the right to act against those who adopt zoning laws. Our zoning officer can do that. After that, we thought it was necessary, and even though it was temporary, we had to discuss it. I don't know if you still want it or not. Is it temporary or do you want something else? To get. Is it temporary or is it temporary? What do you want? We said it was temporary, right? If that's the case, and if it's wrong, then we won't have to wait for a year. To change it. That's one thing. I don't think it's unfair if the people of Vakshya Vitharan want to make it permanent. No. Is that acceptable to everyone? Now let's go to the water and the stream. According to what you have given, I don't think it should be related to the general constitution. Isn't it? Then you have to give a statement about the water quality.

49:50Speaker 1

Is there anything else to show its importance?

49:53 – 50:45Speaker 2

It should be known that other wastewater does not affect the environment. It should be guaranteed. Is that what that part says? Does the department say that a lot of water tests will be done regularly? Yes, that's right. That should be ensured. Should public water supply be allowed only for their bathroom facilities? That is, should it be stored in it or is it there? I think it's there. But I can ensure it. More water. to their break rooms and water fountains. Toilets. You can do that.

51:08Speaker 4

We can think of it as a good time. For example, if it is just a 2-inch water line. Forgive me.

51:14 – 51:26Speaker 3

If it is not a 4-inch water line, then it is a short one. Because they don't need more power. They don't need a long line. It will survive. Okay. Is that it?

51:26 – 53:08Speaker 2

I think there are 4-inch water lines in the county. 4-inch water line, right? But I am saying that if it is not 4-inch, then it is short. So, we can... It will definitely prevent them from doing anything. Isn't it? But my question about this is this. If you need anything for fire flow. That's true. It will be a problem. It will be 6. Yes. Yes. But if they can use it only for toilets and sinks, they won't install a big line because it's too small. In the interim management plan, we had two technicians here. They were talking about how much the county would have to spend to protect the data center. I don't think the county should be responsible for it. I think the data center should be responsible for it. They have to provide all the necessary equipment. Also, they have to provide the training that our county employees have to expect and do. Okay, we have made sure that all the first responders are getting the necessary training and equipment. It's only for the installed system, but I can add the word, give it to me.

53:17 – 53:39Speaker 4

That's why I've read a lot about it. Most of the things are suggested by the host community. That's the bottom line. It's different from the authorities, from the budget, and from the county fees. That is, they're protecting the Agnishamana army. You know that, don't you?

53:42 – 54:32Speaker 2

Anything related to that internal protest? They will have to hand over what the county needs to do to handle it. I don't think it will be enough if we have fire trucks in the 1990s. Someone in our emergency management told us about another type of fire truck. No, the county doesn't have to buy it as a data center. Those assets have to be handed over to the data center itself. I think I have read a lot about this. I think it has to happen. Does anyone use this? If I have the permission to speak. Yes, is this on? Fire protection will be provided to the underground data centers. Because, as I said, the water is very bad there. There may be gas or something else there. So they have to pay for it. Now, the county still needs training. As part of the rescue squad. So we need training for that too. So,

54:45Speaker 3

That is clear.

54:45 – 55:32Speaker 2

I think we have made it clear. Shall we move on to aesthetics? We have made it clear that we only need to take care of zoning solutions. Isn't that right? That is correct. Parking is very clear. That was her love. The rest is just... How do you all feel about it? Amanda?

55:33Speaker 3

Yes, I liked it.

55:34 – 55:54Speaker 2

What do you think about the book? How is it? Is it good? I always look at Kurt first. Because he is the one who has to hear all the complaints. Isn't it? You have to make it happen.

56:02Speaker 2

Are you all satisfied? Do we have to wait until we get a permit to pass this permit?

56:12 – 56:23Speaker 1

You are responsible for this. I wanted to ask a question to Kurt. For the agricultural schools, do they need a certificate of residence? Just like the houses?

56:23 – 57:10Speaker 2

When they build a house, they get permission from the marshal. It depends on the size of the house and what they do. I am saying that it is correct for a person to be able to move into their home when they get an Occupancy Certificate, isn't it? Therefore, I am thinking that if we don't have to give an Occupancy Certificate if they haven't done what they promised in this room after examining the testing and decibel measurements. Are you saying that the State Fire Marshal is the last officer? That's one of the things that we do in our office.

57:10Speaker 1

Okay. The fire inspector is conducting his investigation. Then, the fire inspector, that is, the local fire inspector in Manchester, California, is also conducting their investigation.

57:20 – 57:36Speaker 2

They come and investigate their part and hand it over to both of them. Okay. Like Keith gave us the information, they need to be properly inspected. Are they doing as they promised? Make sure it's a construction. Then they must act as they say. For sure, this will go with this.

57:38 – 57:50Speaker 1

This will go with their plans for the wedding. This will go with their site plan. Before they start the operation, they will check all this. I felt bad. We said they would have six months to submit the testing report. But we have to buy it before the sister-in-law submits it.

58:05 – 58:18Speaker 3

If we don't get a sister or sister-in-law testing report, it's not a good thing. Before we get a sister or sister-in-law, they have to give it to us. Not after six months. Yes, we can do that. Or you can do it temporarily.

58:19Speaker 4

Because they need something to act.

58:21 – 58:38Speaker 2

Okay, to act. So, temporarily. Like a test run. Or how do you do it? We can do it in any way. We can do it. We can give it for 30 days or more. That's why we need to include it.

58:38 – 58:56Speaker 2

You asked a good question about what's in our book. We have a reclamation bond of $10 million. That's right. No, it's a debt of $10 million. A reclamation bond of $95,000 per acre.

59:06 – 59:38Speaker 1

We can change it now, but it will affect other M2 applications. I think it will be in the case of the release of reclamation. About what we should do to remove the requirements they have used. That's why it can't be a $2,000,000 loan because they're building it in two acres. Mayor, please correct me. Your next commission meeting is in October. That's right. October 13th. Yes, that's why.

59:38Speaker 2

As indicated in the zoning resolution. 13. 13. Yes, sir.

59:58 – 1:00:27Speaker 1

We have to advertise in the newspaper, so if we can give it in the newspaper. They have made changes to it. I talked to John about this. Now the advertisements are being handled in a third party. Anyway, a general hearing is also needed 15 days before yoga. So we need to be able to manage those 15 days properly.

1:00:27Speaker 2

The next yoke is on the 29th. When is your full commission yoke? On the 13th. Yes, that's right.

1:00:35Speaker 1

When is your next yoke?

1:00:36 – 1:01:45Speaker 2

On the 29th. Yes. Isn't that one day less? That would be a problem. Yes, I think the next yoke will have to be moved to the week before that. We can do that. We can do that. Let's change the next yoke. Actually, the next yoke will be on the 22nd, because the first yoke is Wednesday. So, the fourth Wednesday will be on the 22nd. Cindy, are you seeing that too? Yes, I'm suggesting Mark. Let's make a resolution. I think things have been decided. We can make something that he can vote for and pass. And then we can announce it in your full commission in October. Is anyone interested in this? Mark, you don't have a problem with this, do you? Mark, I was about to ask you one last thing. It's you. Yes.

1:01:45Speaker 1

Can you handle these little things? You don't have too much of a burden, do you? Yes. Remember, you always have Amanda's support. That's not a problem. I think it will work.

1:01:55 – 1:02:11Speaker 2

Good. Let's... I don't think we need to change anything. We can come back. We have what we need.

1:02:11 – 1:03:00Speaker 1

I would like to talk about the fire protection in our Interstate Industrial Park. We have a mutual aid agreement with Manchester City. When the new Rabba-Arimed plan came, Manchester City looked at hay, all the fertilizers and fertilizers you use. Then the things that burn, you have your own fire department in our industrial park. So, if we find that the data centers have a high possibility of fire, they will have to have their own equipment and survivors. I haven't heard about it, but they might have to do it.

1:03:05 – 1:04:33Speaker 2

Yes, usually in these data centers, there are a lot of sensors, and there will be prevention measures before a fire, and they will properly monitor it. So if there is a fire, they will be able to know immediately. You heard everything we said, right? I'm trying. Do you have anything to say? Any suggestions? No. I am an engineer. I am not against or against data centers. I am only here to provide information. I am happy to help. We are not against or against them. We are trying to find a solution to make things work properly. Madam, I know you are here to talk. Do we have anything to say to your questions? Yes. One thing I think is that there are limits to the number of hours. and if they were allowed 15 turbines earlier. Can you explain what a turbine is? Do you know what you are doing? Do you know what they are saying? It can be coolers, coolers or generators. I understood that they were generators. In Memphis or Mississippi, they first needed 16 cells, then 96 cells, then a lot. You know that, right? That's why the laws don't make it happen. Yes, that's it. That's it. We expect them to be responsible. Okay, then. Make the laws difficult. Yes.

1:04:33Speaker 3

I think they will have to spend a lot of money on the three-month examinations.

1:04:37 – 1:05:29Speaker 2

If they suddenly decide that they need 960, I'm sure they'll do it. Thank you. I'm sorry. I don't know how. No, that's enough. Yes, right. Anyway, thank you for coming here. I appreciate your understanding. Anyone else have anything to say? I have. Yes, sir. Right. Amanda, bring the mic down for people to hear. Please explain in detail what you explained about our GIS mapping and the program. Yes, for a short time, everyone has been needing this. We are immediately starting with a method that allows our zoning permits, zoning decisions, and others to be seen online. Can you explain what you told us briefly?

1:05:39 – 1:08:09Speaker 3

In short, I work with Ohm Advices. They turn your zoning map into a web-based interactive application. They do this with the help of the famous GIS program written by Antarashtralam. Since this is interactive, users can reach their location directly if they pay. This is how I handle this program. If you pay, it will directly reach your land. We can link this to your zoning decisions. This will show your zoning details. We can know the history of the previous zoning of that place through this. It will demonstrate how your district's long-term urban planning works. It will make it clear whether your area's flood plan is a cloud with a possibility of flooding. Therefore, it is linked to the Federal Emergency Management Agency. That is, it is linked to your FAME, FIRM, and MAPs. Therefore, it will operate as a unified system that receives information from Kofi County. We are happy that this can be delivered to all of you in a very respectful manner. We are also happy that your zoning decisions have been updated. All this has been done for a few days. Therefore, it is possible to increase this to the current status, to change it to a pdf that can be collected, to review some of the provisions mentioned by Mayor Hunt today, and to discuss this planning commission as part of the legislature. In total, it will take 6 to 8 months to complete zoning decisions. It can be completed very quickly in the case of GIS map. I think it will take about 4 weeks from start to finish. Updates on zoning map will be available immediately. As soon as the Legislative Assembly approves re-zoning, I will hand it over to the OM leaders. They will update it within about a week. It will be available on your zoning map and online portal. So, we are happy to provide that service. That's great.

1:08:09 – 1:08:51Speaker 2

Apart from the U-IT class I took part in, there are more classes that I can easily do. I have done some experiments on it. There was a simulator there. You can calculate how useful it is for the county to grow UGB in it. For example, if we are planning to develop UGB, how will it affect the schools, water supply, and construction of buildings on this highway, or is it too much? It is very interesting to simulate so many things in GIS maps and to calculate the school rules, water flow, and construction of buildings in one click.

1:09:02Speaker 3

Yes, that's why we can bring so many things to the county. Yes. Thank you. Certainly. Thank you. Very good. That's very good.

1:09:10Speaker 2

I think I can find out the truth from the salary I get. Is there anything else? If not, I will plan to withdraw the interest.

1:09:32Speaker 3

Since Swami is not here, I am inviting you to return the yoke. Miss Nettles has promised to return the yoke. Is anyone listening? I am listening.
