From the meeting
The council ordered public hearing on a proposed one-year moratorium on all data centers. No vendor was selected and no project was awarded, but the item is a policy signal that could affect site selection, permitting, utility demand, and advisory work around data center development. The record shows the matter was still in hearing-stage discussion.
