Learn from Dewitt, Iowa - Community Zoom Call

December 19, 2025 at 12:00 AM UTC
Want to know what really happens when a data center comes to a small rural town? Hear directly from residents of Dewitt, Iowa, who've been living next to a Meta data center for five years. We'll be joined by: - Tom and Janet Morrison, homeowners whose property value dropped after the facility opened - Kevin Walsh, former city council member who voted for the project and now regrets it - Dr. Patricia Chen, hydrogeologist who documented the impact on local groundwater They'll share what they wish they'd known before the project was approved, what the company promised versus what actually happened, and advice for communities like ours. This is a chance to ask questions and learn from their experience. Bring your concerns, bring your questions. **Registration required:** Email us for the Zoom link. We'll also record the session for anyone who can't attend live.
