The Ringgold County Board of Supervisors on June 15 approved publishing a proposed ordinance that would impose a moratorium on data centers and set public hearings for the measure.
Supervisor Randy Taytor moved to publish the ordinance and Supervisor Steve Knapp seconded; the motion passed unanimously. The board set a first public hearing for Monday, June 29, at 6 p.m. in the assembly room and scheduled two subsequent hearings for July 6 and July 13, which the board said it may waive.
The action was recorded in Resolution RC26-97 and was attested by Amanda Waske, Ringgold County Auditor. No substantive debate or testimony on the substance of the moratorium is recorded in the minutes for this meeting.
The next procedural step is the June 29 public hearing, at which members of the public and stakeholders may speak and the board may consider further action.
