On this episode of State of Minds, Hoppy Kercheval speaks with Amy Margolies, Executive Director of Tucker United, about the proposed Ridgeline data center and power generation project in Tucker County.
Margolies explains how local residents first learned about the project, why she became involved, and the concerns many community members have raised regarding transparency, environmental impacts, local control, economic development, and the long-term future of Tucker County. She also discusses Tucker United's position that the debate is not about opposing all data centers, but about whether this particular project is the right fit for the community.
The conversation explores the broader questions facing West Virginia as state leaders pursue data center investment while communities weigh potential opportunities alongside concerns about growth, infrastructure, and quality of life.
