Geronimo Power president calls for more dialogue on data center

FARGO — Blake Nixon, the president of Geronimo Power, says his company and the public need to be heard from properly before a possible vote Thursday on a two-year moratorium on data centers and other power infrastructure developments in Harmony Township. Nixon says a moratorium would drown out vital conversations for those in favor or against future development. It's now been more than a month since Geronimo submitted a request for a conditional use permit to build a data center near the Bison electrical substation in Cass County. But their president says there has been a barrier in communication with the township while they have aimed to be open and transparent. "You said a lot of things on September 22 about my company and individuals that don't deserve that, and you're saying that you're not going to hear that?" Nixon said at the regular township board meeting on Tuesday night, Oct. 20. The Harmony Township Board holds a meeting on Tuesday, Oct. 20,
