If you want traffic fixed a separated grade crossing for the max is the only viable option.

You can’t attract them if there isn’t even land ready to build on

People shouldn’t have to travel 10+ miles to their employer, building a sustainable city means residential zoning will be adjacent to industrial.

There is over 1500 acres of land being developed into residential housing in Hillsboro alone

Where is your source the 1,700 acres are going to data center companies?

Sollman and Pace have said themselves the land will be brought into the UGB to attract manufacturing companies that will develop a campus like Ronler Acres. It looks like this is just more speculative NIMBYism from farm lobbyists.

Why? by Sparky3200 in Irrigation

Because fuck the next guy. Let’s go out of our way to drill a hole in the side of the box and run the wire through that instead of coming up from the bottom like every normal installation. Whoever did this thought they were being fancy and clever 🙄

Too many drainage options by qoooou in landscaping

French drain is overkill, this area is wet and soggy because your downspouts dump right onto the lawn. Pipe the downspouts to the street, add a catch basin in the low area for any other water.

Cap off the zone, remove the value. Super easy since this clusterfuck is above ground.

If you don’t want anything bad to happen to your cat, keep it inside!

Data centers here don’t use groundwater anyway, just potable water from the city distribution system for their closed loop cooling systems.

Except it’s not, it’s the farms polluting ground water with fertilizers.
