From the meeting
The October 5, 2026 agenda scheduled consideration of an interim ordinance authorizing studies and imposing a moratorium on data center development. The September 21 work session said the council wanted the moratorium approved at the October council meeting, so the city was clearly shaping policy before any data center project could advance. This is not a procurement, but it is a buying-trigger item because it signals study work and possible utility planning before development.
No project value was stated.

Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
