Aligned stresses transparency as data center project advances | Exclusive

COSHOCTON − Representatives with Aligned Data Centers say transparency and accountability are watchwords many are brandishing, especially as data centers become hot topics in Coshocton County and around the country. The company is trying to address those concerns while becoming part of the local community as construction continues on its multi-billion dollar data center campus at the Conesville Industrial Park. Aligned has a website and neighborhood guide providing information and answering commonly asked questions about the project. It also has a community engagement email for direct inquiries at coshocton@aligneddc.com. Members of the executive team spoke recently at Coshocton Rotary and Kiwanis club meetings. They've also met with all county school district superintendents and visited the River View and Ridgewood campuses. The company's efforts at community outreach come as the development has faced scrutiny over transparency and access to information. Coshocton resident Andrew Frank sought records from the Coshocton Port Authority related to the project, including correspondence, grant and engineering records and meeting minutes, ultimately filing a complaint with the Ohio Court of Claims over a dispute regarding some information. Frank's complaint was dismissed on a technicality. He is appealing the ruling. More: Lawsuit against Coshocton port authority dismissed on technicality
