Mayor asks staff to bring data-center moratorium resolution for council consideration
Summary
The mayor asked staff to prepare a resolution to impose a moratorium on data center applications and return it to council on August 3; staff agreed and noted other municipalities have passed similar moratoria.
The mayor asked staff to prepare a resolution to place a temporary moratorium on data-center applications and bring the resolution to the council’s August 3 meeting for consideration.
The mayor said there are community concerns about data centers and that a moratorium would allow the city time to develop ordinances limiting size and location. A staff member confirmed that such moratoria are increasingly common and agreed to return a draft resolution for council action. The work session did not adopt a moratorium at the meeting — it only directed staff to prepare the resolution for the August 3 agenda.
