Residents urge temporary moratorium on data centers during public comment
Summary
Multiple public commenters asked the council to consider a temporary moratorium on data centers; speakers included Patrick Donivan, Debra Puckett and Jeff Beauvais. No formal council action on a moratorium was recorded.
During the public-comment portion of the meeting several speakers urged the City Council to consider a temporary moratorium related to data-center development.
Patrick Donivan presented or discussed a petition for a temporary moratorium. Debra Puckett spoke twice during the meeting — once to describe a new program and later to urge a data center moratorium. Jeff Beauvais also addressed the council in favor of a data center moratorium. The minutes record the topics raised but do not include detailed requests, specific ordinance language, or a council response directing staff to take action.
The council did not take any formal action on a moratorium during the meeting. The comments were entered into the public record for council consideration at a later date if council chooses to place the item on a future agenda.
