Committee hears draft data-center moratorium, schedules deeper review for August
Summary
A draft Data Center Moratorium was presented, with discussion of existing ordinance language, liability concerns and a decision to return the proposal to the August meeting for further consideration.
Planning, Zoning and Solid Waste Administrator Pat Virtues presented a draft Data Center Moratorium for the committee's consideration. Committee members discussed how the draft interacts with the current ordinance, potential liability concerns and suggested timeline options; the committee asked staff to place the item on the August agenda for more detailed review.
No motion was taken to adopt the moratorium at the July 7 meeting. Committee members emphasized the need for additional legal and ordinance review before any formal action; Corporation Counsel left the meeting briefly during the discussion and returned later, and the committee scheduled continued consideration for the August meeting.
