Meeting on data centers in Huntington Co.
Huntington County residents have an opportunity to learn more about data centers and carbon capture at a meeting hosted by the Huntington Plan Commission. County commissioners had previously enacted a moratorium on data centers to allow time for research, public forums, and the drafting of local ordinances.
Residents of Huntington County, Indiana, are invited to a public meeting tonight at 5:30 p.m. at the Huntington County Courthouse. The meeting, hosted by the Huntington Plan Commission, will provide information on data centers and carbon capture technologies.
This follows a decision in February by Huntington County Commissioners to enact a moratorium on data centers and related developments. The moratorium was implemented to allow county officials sufficient time to conduct research, organize public forums, and draft specific local ordinances before any permits for data centers are considered. The meeting offers residents a chance to engage with these topics and understand the implications of future data center developments in the county.
