🤝 Agreement with the company
Residents at a town meeting voted unanimously to let selectmen sign a host fee deal for a 32 MW data center on Lopus Road. It promised the town $6 million over three years, then over $2.5 million a year. The project never went forward. In 2026 residents asked selectmen for a moratorium; no vote was reported.
