In his monthly community update, Joplin Mayor Rob O'Brian explains the importance of council retreats.
For Joplin, as in many other cities and even private businesses, it’s a best practice for the board, or in this case - the council - to occasionally take a step back from the usual City business. Many cities refer to this as a leadership retreat, or a vision or strategy session. The real purpose is for the elected officials serving as volunteers on your City Council to spend a day building team cohesion while thinking about the needs of the residents.
The remainder of his message can be found in the video, including a transcript.

maybe they should start thinking about Data Centers and the fact that absolutely NO resident wants one in or near their city.
Sorry, this is just words that let them act like they care about you..
Small Towns are ripe for the picking, as they lack the big picture concepts of what Data Centers really do which is not add any value to a community and only cost the locals through land valuation, water, electricity, natural gas and other resources - including not adding 100's or 1000's of long term employee jobs and by the time the Wizards of Id figure it out they are already planning more Data Centers to suck more out of the community.
