Boulder City residents to vote on AI data center question in November

… In Boulder City, a short drive southeast from Henderson, voters will get to decide whether data centers are an acceptable use for a specific portion of city-owned land known as the Eldorado Valley Transfer Area. … A data center could be an answer to water waste in Boulder City. … Currently, only some of the wastewater from the city plant is used for dust control at a quarry and in solar farms, while the rest is left to evaporate. This isn’t the norm in the Las Vegas Valley or Laughlin, where nearly every drop of water used indoors is captured, treated and sent back to Lake Mead to help stretch the state’s meager share of the Colorado River. … [T]he city could make a profit off of selling that treated wastewater to a data center.
