In what amounted to a sort of economic development pep talk to the city, Mayor Justin Bibb chatted amiably with WKYC anchor Russ Mitchell at a City Club of Cleveland luncheon, held downtown on May 27.  The two danced a bit around the normal friction that exists between the media and the Bibb administration, but mostly the discussion was about the issues of the day: data centers, the Midline greenway project, housing and vacant homes, the consolidating school district, police accountability, the lakefront and the airports, the I-X Center, the Browns’ new stadium and the so-called “Cleveland Era.”  Even the Middle East was touched on, along with the endangered Voting Rights Act and Bibb’s belief in mandatory public service.   The mayor, by the way, gives the Cleveland press a “B” for fairness and accuracy, in response to Mitchell’s request for a grade to date. That’s the score he also gives himself and his administration for the way he has handled the media in his five years in office, while calling himself “one of the most transparent, accessible mayors” in Cleveland’s history.  He said that his administration handled more than 25,000 public records requests last year for the public and the media.

(The Center Square)- A one-year ban on new large-scale data centers appears likely to be approved by the full Seattle City Council later this month. The City Council’s Land Use and Sustainability Committee unanimously approved the moratorium on Wednesday, setting the stage for full approval by the entire council as soon as June 16. Seattle Mayor Katie Wilson first proposed the ban in April, and none of the nine council members have broken ranks with the mayor on the issue since then. The mayor's announcement came after four companies approached Seattle’s city-owned electric utility, Seattle City Light, about building large-scale data centers. Two of the companies subsequently withdrew their applications. Under the plan, Seattle would impose a one-year moratorium on data centers that use more than 20 megawatts of power. Seattle already has more than two dozen data centers, but none of the large-scale centers that are causing controversy across the U.S. The city plans to study the issue during the one-year pause to determine whether large-scale data centers could operate under certain conditions. Councilman Eddie Lin, who chairs the Land Use and Sustainability Committee, said he was concerned about “the impact of mega data centers” and whether the city has the capacity to provide electricity without causing rate increases for other customers. He also echoed an environmental message, saying that energy demand from data centers may force the city to rely more heavily on electricity generated from fossil fuels. Public feedback has been heavily against the facilities. Most of the 30 public commenters on Wednesday expressed deep concern over what they said would be the data centers’ high electricity and water consumption. Several Amazon engineers also appeared at Seattle City Council hearings on Wednesday, supporting the city council’s regulation of the data centers. The engineer’s testimony comes as the company lays off thousands of employees while expanding AI and data centers nationwide. “It’s been reported that this year, Amazon is spending $200 billion on capital, with most of it going to data centers and AI,” said Patrick Schloesser, who identified himself as a software engineer at Amazon Web Services. “Meanwhile, the leaders at my company have laid off 30,000 corporate employees in the last eight months.” Margaret Callahan, a spokeswoman for Amazon, said in a statement to The Center Square that the company respects its colleagues' right to voice their opinions. “Currently, we don’t have any plans to construct data centers within the Seattle city limits," she said. “Across the communities where we do operate data centers, we’re committed to being a responsible neighbor—investing in local economic development while prioritizing water and energy efficiency that exceeds industry standards."

(The Center Square) - Colorado Gov. Jared Polis vetoed a Democrat-backed bill on Wednesday that would have allowed citizens to sue immigration enforcement officers for civil rights violations. The Democratic governor’s veto comes amidst a series of vetoes against legislation passed by his own party. Questions of constitutionality surrounded the immigration enforcement lawsuits bill. “I applaud the sponsors of this legislation for tackling this critical issue,” Polis wrote in his explanation of the veto. “Unfortunately, after careful consideration, I believe the legal risks of the actual language in SB 26-005 outweigh the potential benefits.” The Rights Violation in Immigration Enforcement Remedy bill, Senate Bill 26-005, would have allowed Colorado citizens to sue federal agents who violated their civil rights while participating in civil immigration enforcement. Any legal action against federal officers would need to take place within two years of the alleged violation. The Colorado bill came in reaction to the U.S. Immigration and Customs Enforcement's crackdown on illegal immigrants across the country in Democrat-led cities. The bill was introduced before the highly publicized killings of U.S. citizens Alex Pretti and Renee Good by ICE, U.S. Border Patrol and Customs and Border Protection agents in Minneapolis. President Donald Trump said the killings should not have happened. Wider legal questions about SB 26-005 have focused on its effort to govern federal officials. The bill could have presented a potential violation of supremacy law in the U.S., which says that contradictory local laws are trumped by federal law, according to the Constitution Center. Recent legislation in other states, such as a California law to require federal agents wear identification, have been blocked for supremacy clause violations. Polis’ issue with the lawsuit bill, however, was that its focus was too narrow. “This bill doesn't apply to any other context besides civil immigration enforcement - including rights violations in protests, elections, prisons, or the workplace,” said Polis. “For example, even in the narrow context of immigration, the bill doesn't cover violations of constitutional rights during criminal investigations in immigration.” Polis added that he would have been more likely to support a more expansive federal official lawsuits bill. In fact, one was proposed in the Colorado General Assembly or legislature, SB 26-176, but several Democratic lawmakers joined Republican colleagues to quash the measure. “Unfortunately, and despite the sponsors' admirable and tireless work to move that bill forward, it died in the process due to overly intense and misleading lobbying from local governments and public entities,” Polis said of SB 26-176. Polis, who has a reputation for being a centrist or moderate Democrat, has split from the Colorado Democratic Party on several major issues in the wake of his last legislative session in office, including the commutation of Tina Peters, who was convicted of election tampering. “Reducing her sentence now, under pressure from Donald Trump, is not justice,” the Colorado Democratic Party said in a statement on Peters’ commutation. “It sends a message to future bad actors that election tampering has consequences, unless you’re friends with the president.” The state Democratic Party removed Polis as a speaker at multiple upcoming party-organized events. The Colorado Democratic Party did not respond to The Center Square's request for an interview.
