The loggers may not have been local but I dont think you drop 250k trees without a shit load of people noticing. The data center as a whole project will swell workers and trade jobs in the area during the construction for a facility large enough to warrant that much clearing.

I think many in the local area were fine with it while opponents are getting good coverage now.

I travel pretty often. Most places ive been this year have someone in to grab the trash, make the beds, and swap the towels /replace hotel provided toiletries and coffee/tea every other day.
