Opinion

The data center is heavy industrial development that does not belong near homes.

That is a land-use judgment, not a self-proving factual conclusion.

What the reviewed record shows

The scale is industrial in ordinary language, but Hobart’s zoning ordinance addresses data centers in the M-1 Light Manufacturing district. Whether this use belongs at the location is a policy opinion residents and officials may debate; it is not established merely by labeling the project “heavy industrial.”
