The City of Palo is holding a town hall meeting regarding plans from Google to bring a billion dollar data center to the area. Google had previously worked with Linn County to bring a data center near the Duane Arnold Energy Center nuclear plant. After Linn County approved regulatory and economic frameworks focused on water sustainability, Google decided to pursue the same site but have the city of Palo annex the land, allowing them to bypass the county's rules.
