It seemed like a good use for that, and there was still lots of available land for off-end.

office parks um and the Route seven corridor, the Route fifty corridor, as well as Route Twenty Eight.

As time has gone on, uh the the data center alley corridor t filled up, and so data centers started uh uh getting applications in and many approved, and many approved along Route 28 uh in on vacant parcels.
low-confidence
And then uh as that started to fill up, they started because of the uh PDOP availability.
low-confidence
two data centers they started filling up in areas that the county never envisioned data centers to go.

But because it allowed it, they were able to to move into those areas.

We've reached a point in the county where pretty much the available land is pretty much all spoken for, and most people will also recognize that from a dollar point of view, the most valuable use in this county for land.

low-confidence
But they were also building a quarter million square feet of flex industrial space, um that the type of space the county also really needs in a place.
low-confidence
Place for those tenants, if they chose, had somewhere to move to.
low-confidence
The problem I see with this is now we're tearing down other businesses, office buildings, hotels.
low-confidence
Why?
