Why three Wagga councillors opposed sale of Gregadoo land linked to $15b data centre proposal

Key points

• Three Wagga councillors did not support a move to sell council-owned land at Gregadoo to CDC Data Centres. Councillors Mike Henderson and Jenny McKinnon voted against the motion, and Amelia Parkins abstained.
• They raised concerns about a lack of information and community consultation. The majority vote allows the general manager to negotiate community commitments before the sale proceeds.
• The vote does not approve the data centre, which the NSW Government will decide.
