HUGE Give-Aways For Ga-Ga-GaZillion Tech Giant Google Data Center Here in Mesa?

That's right and it's as they like to say A BIG DEAL - it's up on the agenda for tomorrow's Mesa City Council Public Meeting.
According to mainstream media reports, the City Council is "primed" to approve it.
If you want some of the hype - and sketchy details - you know where you can go > Google Picks Mesa for Giant Data Center  
_________________________________________________________________________
"Technology giant Google is coming to Mesa, lured by a tax incentive agreement to build a massive data center in the emerging Elliot Road Technology Corridor. . . The Mesa City Council is primed to approve the Google development agreement at its meeting on Monday night."
HOLD ON! We've been kept in the dark about this in a confidentiality agreement with the company by city officials. We learned that tidbit after a closed-door Executive Session scheduled on the agenda at last Thursday's City Council Study Session.
To keep it quiet it was code-named Project Red Hawk. . . the deal isn't done until the City Council approves it.
As it turns out, there was little or no public involvement, engagement or participation in this project - even when it was disguised and hidden as Project Red Hawk in a City of Mesa Planning & Zoning Board Hearing on March 20,2019.

< If the real truth gets told, there are few jobs that go with data centers. That's simply a fact.

In the opening link for one Mainstream news story, Mesa Mayor John Giles is quoted as saying:
“In terms of a financial deal, this is home run. This is a great day, . . "  Giles said Google’s decision to build the data center in Mesa means that the Elliot Road Tech Corridor will be anchored at each end by one of the world’s largest tech companies, Apple and Google.
“There’s no city that would not be envious of that,’’ Giles said.
He said the project has been known to insiders by a code name, “Project Red Hawk,’’ for more than a year because Mesa signed a confidentiality agreement with Google.
Hmmm.... Time to disclose for Hizzoner!
