The Halt Taylor Data Center Coalition has initiated legal action against the Taylor City Council, filing a lawsuit on Friday. The coalition asserts that the city council neglected its duty to act on a certified citizen petition that aimed to block data centers from city zoning areas.
The lawsuit claims the city charter required the council to call an election in response to the petition, and the coalition is seeking a court order to compel this vote. A city spokesperson for Taylor declined to comment on the matter due to the pending litigation.
