Princeton's City Council addressed questions regarding a proposed data center in the city's infrastructure plans, which includes a projected demand of 400,000 gallons of water per day. Mayor Eugene Escobar Jr. emphasized that the city has not been approached to supply water to the site, which lies in the extraterritorial jurisdiction (ETJ), limiting the city's development oversight.
Councilmember Cristina Todd confirmed that the city will not service the ETJ project, despite the project's inclusion in the infrastructure plans raising concerns among residents about property values and water costs. The city has been asked for clarification on the project's representation in the plans and whether any infrastructure funding is anticipated.
