The Hancock County Board of Commissioners is scheduled to meet on Nov. 2, 2026, in Greenfield, Indiana, according to the published agenda for that date. The agenda lists a public comment period and an item for the review and execution of a local hospital contract.
The agenda record also includes comments attributed to resident Kurt Swadener, who according to the document expressed general concerns about the data center project after attending an open house held by EQT. The agenda states Swadener said he left the open house with “more questions than answers” and that his primary concern involves the scale of the tax incentives associated with the project.
For residents of Hancock County, the meeting agenda is significant because it formally places the EQT data center project and related public concerns on the record of a county government meeting, alongside other county business such as the hospital contract.
