Chair and meeting organizers frame the hearing as focused on whether to adopt a moratorium on large data-center development in unincorporated Alamance County; staff and commissioners note the county lacks comprehensive zoning and that the moratorium would buy time to draft standards. Attorney Stevens will later present legal requirements for a moratorium.
