Google Strategic Investment Plan Talks Continue

There was no vote Wednesday by Wasco County Commissioners on the Strategic Investment Plan Google is seeking to build new data centers on former Northwest Aluminum and Rodeo Grounds properties, as negotiations continue between the company and the County and the City of The Dalles.  Wasco County Administrator Tyler Stone says those negotiations revolve around legal language, and he doesn’t expect any significant changes to the agreement that has been outlined to both the County Commission and City Council.  Stone says he hopes an agreement can be ready for the County Commission to vote on March 17, and then the City Council would do the same on March 22.  Mid-Columbia Fire and Rescue is also meeting with Google on a fire protection plan for the proposed structures.
