A data center moratorium was passed in Northwest Indiana this week, a significant development for the region's infrastructure landscape. This decision, coupled with severe storms, resulted in widespread disruptions to local government operations.
Throughout the week, the combination of the new moratorium and inclement weather forced regional leaders to declare local emergencies. These conditions also led to the postponement of numerous government meeting schedules across the area, including in places like Munster, where crews were observed installing new electrical poles on Calumet Avenue.
