Hutto plans for $39M public works facility Hutto City Council approved plans in late November for a $39.8 million Hutto Public Works facility. The details City staŒ identi ed the need for an expanded public works facility due to population growth.

Hutto council approves permit for new data center development Hutto City Council approved a speci c-use permit during a Dec. 5 meeting to allow for a data center on Innovation Boulevard. The gist Council’s approval of the permit allows the developer, Ironwood Realty Partners, to move for- ward with plans for a roughly 180,000-square-foot data center, located near the corner of Hwy. 79 and SH 130. Amanda Brown, of HD Brown Consulting, said the project is in the early stages but expects the facility to be an approximately $500 million investment to the Ironwood property, which would generate tax bene ts to the city. It’s still unclear how many employees the new data center would staŒ, but Brown said it could be anywhere

from 15-30 employees. Council members shared concerns about the possible impact to residents in the area, speci cally whether the project would necessitate the construc- tion of power lines to the facility. However, Brown said multiple routes from a nearby substation are already in place and does not expect the need to build new lines over residential communities. “I think this is a great place to have a low employee count, high-value item that will be built,” Mayor Mike Snyder said. “It will look good and provide tax revenue, but it won’t have the impacts that a lot of the industrial uses tend to have.”
