Maysville Council Faces Controversy Over Data Center Approval
Maysville City Council is under scrutiny following the conditional approval of a data center in January 2025. Tensions have escalated, particularly among residents questioning transparency and the decision-making process behind the vote.

The Maysville City Council, consisting of three pro-data center members and two critics, is facing public backlash regarding a data center approved for conditional use in January 2025. A recent workshop saw Councilor Steve Boswell affirm his support for the project, admitting his lack of knowledge about municipal governance.
Meanwhile, Councilor Brodriche Jackson expressed dissatisfaction with Northern Data and RUM Group, alleging dishonesty regarding rising power costs. Tensions peaked at a town hall meeting, where citizens voiced strong opposition to the data center. The council will vote on a forensic audit at the next meeting, amid calls for greater accountability and transparency.
