From the meeting
At the August 20, 2026 meeting the board adopted a temporary moratorium on development approvals for artificial intelligence data centers, cryptocurrency mining facilities, and similar high-intensity computing facilities. The ordinance lasts until August 20, 2027 unless ended earlier or extended. This is not a purchase, but it signals a future zoning and regulatory review that could lead to new standards and consulting needs.
