Chatham County commissioners held their Jan. 20 meeting, approving two ceremonial resolutions and moving to schedule a public hearing on a proposed moratorium on AI data centers and cryptocurrency mining after several public commentators raised water, energy and waste concerns. Staff outlined the moratorium process, timelines and statutory notice requirements; the board set a special meeting for Feb. 11 at 4 p.m. to take the matter up.
