From the meeting
At the October 22, 2026 meeting, the county considered Ordinance O-26-03 creating a temporary one-year moratorium on data centers and direct supporting infrastructure in unincorporated Grant County. The ordinance said the county would study water use, energy infrastructure, emergency access, drainage, fire protection, noise, and subdivision impacts before writing regulations. It also barred related subdivision actions when the purpose is to support a data center.
This is not a purchase, but it is a buying trigger for planners, consultants, and utility advisors once the county starts drafting the follow-on rules.

A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
