Pinal County is deciding — right now — how, and on what terms, data centers get built. The five members of the Board of Supervisors hold the vote. Here's how to tell them where you stand.
The ask is simple: welcome the investment, but require large data centers to cover the water and power costs they create — through permit conditions, not subsidies or higher resident bills.
The Planning & Zoning Commission only recommends. The Board of Supervisors is the only body that can approve or deny. These are the people to reach.
Copy this, edit it however you like, and send it to your supervisor — or all five.
Dear Supervisor, I'm a Pinal County resident. With La Osa and other large data centers in the pipeline, I'm asking the Board to require these campuses to cover the water and power costs they create — through permit conditions, not subsidies or higher bills for residents. A full, resident-authored proposal on exactly how to do that is here: papers.thefortthatholds.com/data-centers Please protect our aquifer, our grid, and our tax base. Thank you.
This board was elected in 2024; all five seats come up again in 2028. When candidates ask for your vote, ask one question: will you require data centers to pay their own way?
