> Three volunteers with the No Janesville Data Center effort met us there. Alyssa Capozziello is a disabled mom who resolved last year to become more engaged in her community. Kaycee Peterson, lean and ponytailed, is finishing her bachelor’s in environmental science. Cathy Erdman is a local organizer and firefighter who just returned from a vacation to Mongolia.
> And Alyssa is perturbed by the idea of a data center so close to Janesville’s underserved neighborhoods. “They’re coming to one of the poorest counties in our state, with a property that’s been vacant, knowing that people are thirsty to have development here,” said Alyssa. “If you look at where data centers are being built, it’s not in Mark Zuckerberg’s backyard. It is in hardworking Janesvillians’.”
