Casual conversation with former Holyoke city planner about data center moratorium
By
Andy Masley
Summary
A blogger shares an experimental, casual recorded conversation with a former city planner friend, Curtis, about a recent data center moratorium in Holyoke, MA. The post is a departure from the author's usual style, aiming to surface candid opinions from city planners on data center issues. The content is very brief (106 words) and serves primarily as an introduction or placeholder, with a transcript promised soon.

· 3 pulledI recorded a conversation with my friend Curtis who until a few years ago was a city planner in Holyoke MA and had a lot of thoughts on a recent data center moratorium there.
This is an experiment in posting more casual unstructured conversations with friends I like hearing from on topics my readers might be interested in.
I'll have a transcript here soon.
