Research shows data center noise can be heard up to two miles away, with the worst impacts within 3,000 feet. Some jurisdictions recommend keeping hyperscale facilities at least 2.5 miles from schools and healthcare facilities. Seven Grove City schools fall inside this radius. Two more are right on the edge. This is not a Ward 1 problem. This is a Grove City problem. Every ward in our city is affected... because every ward's children go to these schools.
