Duggan: ‘Data Centers Have to Meet These Three Standards for Approval When I’m Governor’

Former Detroit Mayor Mike Duggan addressed the controversial issue of data center development at the Detroit Regional Chamber's Detroit Policy Conference held at the Hudson on Thursday. His remarks focused on three critical aspects of the data center debate that has been rapidly escalating across Michigan: the site selection process for these facilities, the financial responsibility for necessary infrastructure improvements, and the safeguards that local communities should receive prior to finalizing agreements. The conference provided Duggan a platform to stake out a position on this contentious local issue.
