The Issue

The proposed Flexential data center in Parker, Colorado, is a looming threat to our community's well-being. As a resident living in this area, I am deeply concerned about its proximity, being less than half a mile from our homes, apartments, condos, townhomes, preschools, colleges, parks, sports fields, the Broncos training center, and valued bike trails. This is not just about preserving our peace and quiet; it's about safeguarding the heart of our community where families, children, students, pets, wildlife, and even pollinators like bees flourish.

The potential impacts are numerous and significant. The data center will demand massive amounts of electricity and water, increasing utility costs and exacerbating current issues during times of drought. The constant noise and heat emissions from such a facility threaten to disrupt the tranquility of our neighborhoods. It's predicted that heavy traffic will swarm our already busy roads, putting a strain on infrastructure and risking our safety.

Furthermore, there are environmental concerns. Data centers are known for their high emissions, contributing to air pollution and climate change. The long-term impacts of these emissions on both the local environment and public health cannot be underestimated.

Our community deserves to have a say in such a significant project. We cannot permit this data center to proceed without transparency. We demand a series of independent studies addressing the potential environmental, health, and infrastructural impacts. These should include noise and emissions analysis, water and power usage assessments, and evaluations of traffic implications.

Moreover, we seek solid protections and mitigation plans to be put in place if the proposal moves forward. These should include commitments to minimize ecological impacts, ensure sustainable water and power usage, and implement noise control measures. We also urge the inclusion of community feedback channels in the planning process to ensure our voices are heard and respected.

Help us preserve the integrity of Parker, Colorado. We owe it to our families, our children, and future generations to maintain the quality of life they deserve. Please sign this petition today to stop the construction of the Flexential data center until all legitimate concerns are thoroughly addressed and answered.
