Council postpones vote on construction site rules amid data center noise-related concerns

CHEYENNE — Following extensive discussion over industrial noise standards and their potential impacts on data centers, construction businesses and other industrial operations, members of the Cheyenne City Council voted to postpone consideration of an amendment to the Unified Development Code regarding construction site rules. The ordinance, which was discussed at a council meeting Monday, would create two new sections of the UDC and amend three existing ones. The changes are intended to clarify requirements around establishing uses, including expectations for construction sites, while also addressing concerns about water use, lighting, noise and other impacts associated with large industrial developments. Much of the debate centered on proposed noise limits, which the document states should be 45 decibels in residential areas and 65 decibels everywhere else. Paul Steed, project manager for Mechanical Systems Inc., warned council members that lower noise thresholds could have unintended consequences for local businesses and construction projects. He said reducing allowable noise levels could require expensive mitigation measures, particularly near residential areas. Representatives from the data center industry also supported reasonable noise protections, but questioned whether the proposed standards were appropriate. Chris Tetlow, metro director for Microsoft in Cheyenne, urged council members to retain limits that currently apply

What a Wyoming Election Judge Saw on Election Day

For years, I’ve enjoyed volunteering as an election judge in Laramie County, Wyoming (population 104,189). Almost two-thirds of us live in Cheyenne, the county seat and state capital. On Election Day, nearly 3,000 voted at Storey Gym, one of seven polling places scattered across Laramie County’s 2,688 square miles. I choose not to be paid, but the county offers election workers $16.00 an hour. Most of us work election days from 6:00 a.m. to 8:00 p.m. All of us do it to support our system of democracy.
