County Commission to consider an exit from lawsuit over state’s schools takeover
The Shelby County Commission is scheduled to vote on a new moratorium on data center development in the county’s unincorporated areas. The commission is also considering whether to withdraw from lawsuits challenging the state takeover of the Memphis-Shelby County Schools elected board.
The Shelby County Commission is expected to consider a proposed moratorium on data center development in unincorporated Shelby County. The measure is among items on the commission’s agenda and had not yet been approved at the time of publication.
The commission is also weighing a resolution sponsored by Commissioner Mark Billingsley to withdraw from lawsuits contesting the state’s takeover of the elected board overseeing Memphis-Shelby County Schools. That proposal failed to receive enough committee votes the previous week.
