Data Center Development & Public Affairs
Navigating Data Center Development
Data center projects involve far more than selecting a site and constructing a building. They can require coordination among local governments, utilities, regulatory agencies, neighboring communities, elected officials, business organizations, and other stakeholders.
Land Use Strategies helps data center developers navigate the land use, political, communications, and community issues that can affect project approvals. We develop practical strategies that help clients communicate clearly, anticipate concerns, build productive relationships, and move projects through an increasingly complex public process.

“Land Use Strategies offered an understanding of both the municipal environment as well as the regional solid waste landscape. They were able to provide the insight and objective input we needed to develop an effective strategy. LUS was my go-to resource as we worked our plan, and he helped us make the adjustments necessary in a dynamic process. I came to rely on their ability to quickly assess new and changing inputs, ask the right questions and assist me in making critical decisions.”
