The Lowndes County Commission approved Tuesday development agreements for a controversial hyperscale data center project near U.S. 80 and Alabama 21.

Project Red Clay, which will be developed by Houston-based Cloverleaf Infrastructure, has been met with fierce backlash from residents over concerns about noise, environmental impact and a lack of transparency about who will operate the center after construction is complete.

Todd and Cindy talk about the center in this segment of the Black Belt Newscast.
