(And if you're excited about early onset arthritis pls help us stamp these oh no)

Slide 2: The same photo from slide one is still in the background. In the foreground is the following text: U of M states in their own FAQs that, “U-M has met with township officials and is planning further community engagement opportunities.” (1) Slide 3: In a continuation of the previous slide, a white block with black text reading, ‘However, residents and community members have attended multiple Township Trustee meetings where Trustees themselves (underlined in red) describe confusion about the project as well as stonewalling from U of M. (2)’ A picture serves of signs from an Ypsilanti Township Board of Trustees meeting depicts concerned community members holding up signs that say ‘Oppose the Data Center in Ypsi’ and U of M out of Ypsi’ serves as the backdrop for the text block. Slide 4: Another picture from a potluck of community members gathering at the Board of Trustees meeting to provide public comment serves as the background for the following paragraphs of text: ‘Based on comments from the trustees as well as a quick peek into Michigan state law we know: *U of M has not shared any plans with the township and has instead stated they are operating under an NDA concerning the specifications of the facility *Universities in Michigan are exempt from local building and zoning ordinances (3), so the degree to which the township board—and by extension the residents of Ypsilanti Township—have any democratic say, oversight, or avenue for halting the project remain legally unclear.’ Slide 5: The list from the previous slide continues atop a picture of yard signs painted by community members who oppose the data center. The text reads: ‘*The legal advisor of the board of Trustees notes that in the limited negotiations that have taken place, U of M is refusing to pay into township emergency services. *University of Michigan is additionally tax exempt, and therefore not providing any contribution of funds for community use. *The university says the project will create “at least 200 direct, high-paying, research-based jobs in Washtenaw County.” Notably not necessarily offering these jobs, which are often remote/hybrid positions, to directly impacted community members.’
