North Plains is on track to be the first Oregon city to ban data centers! At Monday's council meeting, we unanimously voted to move forward with the ban.

I appreciate Councilor Anna Warrington who led this effort with local data center expert Emily Waldron and city staff.

Our community has made clear through our referendum and elections how important it is to preserve North Plains as a small town surrounded by farmland. This is another step toward honoring that vision.

Did you know the "Real North Plains" mailer you received on Friday was funded by land developers who tried to take away your right to vote on the North Plains UGB expansion? Since they lost control of City Council and the City Manager, they are now getting desperate. Many statements in the flyer are highly misleading, and their eventual goal is to get North Plains to expand so landowners can sell their land.
