After the Edmond City Council passed a moratorium on data centers using more than 75 megawatts of power through December 31, 2026, numerous people in town have been asking "what does that mean?"

For the month of May 2026 our team tackled a major topic that is being discussed across the United States; Affordable/Attainable Housing. Cody Boyd, founder of Edmond Urbanist, joins the team for the conversation. And we must apologize to Rhonda & Ronnie, who both had gremlins attack their microphones. Hopefully you don't miss much of what they added to this discussion.

The intrepid Edmond Voices team sits down and pulls topics of conversation from their old friend the red solo cup. Topics chosen and discussed this month include: 1) What's Coming to Edmond This Summer/Fall; 2) What Retail Do You Want To See Come To Edmond; and 3) Do You Think We Should Slow Down Residential Growth In Edmond.
