The problem is that many don't understand what the word "infrastructure" means. It's all that unsexy stuff like roads, reservoirs, dams, power transmission systems and pipelines (water, oil and gas).
On the local news tonight, a proposed data center in Howell Township has been put on hold, for at least 6 months, but the township board. Meanwhile, DTE is trying to force through a data center in Saline Township. These are both rural areas that don't have diddly in industrial scale infrastructure.
The city of Detroit has finished tearing down about 90% of the old Packard factory. That parcel, has industrial scale infrastructure already in place. Why the heck doesn't someone put a data center there? Oh, I know. The data center developers think they can get the local taxpayers to pay for the infrastructure their data centers need, for them.
