Letter to the Editor,

The plain and simple truth about a potential data center and sand mine project to kill the landfill.

Please remember the landfill is being built. It’s not a maybe. It is under construction. The Commissioners have two choices: 1) Approve the ordinance that limits the data center so it must produce its own electricity, must use water from the holding pond to cool the chillers and recirculate it, and keep the noise to acceptable levels, or 2) Let the landfill be finished and millions of tons of trash trucked into Waynesville. Those are the only two options no matter what any out of town politician says.
