Environmental groups are seeking a moratorium on data centers. A city planning commission is developing recommendations for an ordinance to regulate these facilities. Several working groups met to discuss the issue in the spring and early summer.

Two potential data center sites have been identified, but currently, there is no ordinance in place to govern them. The planning commission's recommendations will be considered by the city council.

Further details about the proposed ordinance and the city's decision-making process are available. The city council had previously recommended a two-year moratorium, but it has not been implemented.
