Multiple residents told the board that a concrete plant near homes and the Coastal trail generates intermittent industrial noise—one resident cited a 93‑decibel reading at 3:10 a.m.—and urged the county to reassess compatibility, buffering and enforcement; commissioners asked staff for additional noise monitoring and follow‑up.

Council introduced Ordinance 12633 to broadly prohibit data centers and tightened accessory-use thresholds (a 1,000 sq. ft or 20% cap). Residents and planning‑board members urged more study, and council members debated caps (1,000 vs 12,000 sq. ft) and electrical/noise measures; consultant Joe Burgess said the draft effectively prohibits data centers and recommended planning‑board review.

Multiple residents told the council they oppose a proposed 175‑acre eGroup solar facility inside Twentynine Palms, citing the DEIR's finding of significant, unavoidable aesthetic impacts, dust and health concerns, risks to tourism and town character, and inadequate community benefits.

Residents raised health, land‑use and fire‑safety worries about a proposed Hayfork wireless facility (project P‑2414); Sheriff Saxon reported DayWireless surveys and $180,000 in state funds to repair repeaters with priority sites identified at Oregon Mountain, Hayfork and Carville.

The Huntington City Council voted to send a letter opposing a proposed utility‑scale solar field east of town, approved a business license for a mobile ice‑cream vendor and an amendment for a diesel shop, and passed code updates on animal control and geotechnical review.
