Former U.S. Sen. Kyrsten Sinema warned the city of Chandler in a meeting last week that failure to support the development of local AI-focused data centers will result in a loss of control for the city. The federal government, she said, will eventually step in.

The potential developer has argued against city staff’s concerns that the project does not fit the area’s land-use vision.
