Weld County officials have taken crucial steps towards the construction of what is set to be the largest data center in Colorado. Following several contentious discussions and debates about the implications of the project, the county commissioners unanimously approved the permit for the Global AI data center. Despite concerns regarding power and water usage, the permissions were granted, leading to preparations for potential clashes between officials from nearby Greeley and Windsor. Greeley has also moved to approve annexations related to the data center, reflecting the growing interest and complexity surrounding this significant development in the region.
