Decision Maker Response

Trey Webb’s response

Thank you for sharing your concerns about the proposed AI data center project in Ekron. I want residents to know that I’ve heard their concerns, and I’ve been open and responsive throughout this process.

The Fiscal Court has voted down the proposed construction, and the project will not be moving forward as originally planned. I’ve been communicating regularly with community members — especially through local Facebook groups — and I believe we have a good sense of what residents want for our area.

Many people have expressed that while they are open to new industries and development, they do not support data centers specifically. Once one data center is approved, it becomes harder to stop additional ones from being built, and I understand those concerns.

As your elected representative, I’ll continue to listen to constituents and base my decisions on what is in the best interest of the community. We’ll also keep reviewing other development proposals and gauging public interest to ensure that future projects reflect what residents want for Meade County’s growth and quality of life.

Respectfully,
Trey Webb
Magistrate, District 6
