@utahabc4: Meta is expanding its Eagle Mountain Data Center and making significant new investments in local schools and community projects, bringing its total investment to more than $3 billion. When broken down, the funding includes $1.05 million for education and public amenities, with a $600,000 donation to help the Lake Mountain School District purchase land for a future elementary school.

Mancy Podcast and Poetry :

It's a bribe. The data centers will make the area uninhabitable.

.. :

WATER. Is the resources the kids need

Tiffany Ess :

returned 726 million gallons of water? amazing. now tell us how much water they pulled out of the water shed, by contrast? guaranteed this is a word game, and they used was more than they returned.

Investment….translation ….bribes

hippiedollxo 🪷 :

why did he say investing $3 billion and then the caption said investing 1 million.

etchedinmyheart :

This is a joke they don’t even pay taxes but home owners got their property taxes raised! Utah sucks

Simcapener 🦟 :

However eagle mountain city rased taxes by 134% because they gave Facebook \ Meta a rax break.

Kaia St John :

No thanks. Rather they didn’t.

Moreno Pride :

Eagle Mountain settled for crumbs.Why couldn't they ask from META a yearly increase in founs going back to the community

✨ J A M I E ✨ :

Bribery

nopenottoday489 :

Considering that the individual citizens property taxes just doubled I don’t think that this is nearly enough. I’m sure the residents would rather have Meta pay taxes like everyone else does.

Brayden :

Omg this is literally ridiculous. I went to the council meeting and the only thing that happened was getting gaslit. They got a tax break while we’re paying 189% on property tax.

Mckay :

Meta will receive up to $ 750 million in tax breaks from the city council's approval of no property tax for the next 40 years. A million-dollar donation is a drop in the bucket.

abion47 :

A million dollars in government spending is basically nothing. They would've made a million dollars in taxes from Meta practically overnight.

WavingKnave :

Don’t fall for the trap

toastypbj :

Y'all know how much copper and how few employees are in data centers 👀

eye_kye :

1st the tax increase, Tyson closes, now this…. Eagle mountain leaders need to be removed.

hobo joe :

sounds like they're giving a tenth of a cent on every million dollars they make from that location.

Katertots21 :

hey, so we don't need land, we need water.

Nickle for a pickle :

I’m so sick of Utah county 😭😭😭

musethegyarumermaid :

Free copper?

Lynn :

Oh hell, no. Why were we not told about this and why didn't we get a vote on it. City center you have some explaining to do

Lloyd Togisala :

Say good bye to Utah Lake. Hello Data center. Q:What happens when Utah lake is gone? Does American Fork, or Lehi, or etc… have to share their water rights?
