The Kennesaw City Council is advancing a proposed 12-month moratorium on data center development, an initiative that follows similar actions taken by Cobb County and the city of Marietta. The moratorium is slated to be placed on the council's consent agenda for its upcoming meeting, scheduled for Tuesday at 6 p.m.
This move signals Kennesaw's intention to temporarily halt new data center construction within its municipal limits for a year, indicating a local governmental response to the increasing development of such facilities in the region.
