Witek added that he feels like the residents don’t have a voice in their government particularly in the question of whether a data center should be allowed to settle in the city. “If I get elected, I don’t want to make decisions for the most part. I want the community to decide what they want to do,” Witek said. “It’s not something people want, so why even think about it?”

Says Grantville should not consider a data center if residents do not want one and wants the community to decide.
