I am writing today to speak out AGAINST putting a 400-megawatt data center in the middle of San Diego. According to emails obtained by Voice of San Diego, Manchester Financial is actively exploring building a 400 megawatt data center on a 70 acre parcel near Old Town, which was originally slated for housing. This is a densely populated area. A data center of this size would be incredibly noisy and the 24/7 noise could be audible up to a mile away. Furthermore, this would put additional strain on the electrical grid. Data centers are bad for the environment and bad for human health. Say NO to a data center in San Diego.
