The Byron City Council in Georgia has approved a new data center ordinance, despite opposition from local residents. The ordinance establishes specific rules and regulations concerning water usage, noise levels, and energy consumption for any potential data center development within the city.
In conjunction with the ordinance, the council also voted to extend an existing moratorium on data center construction. Council members had previously toured data centers in the Atlanta area to gain insights into their operations before making their decision.
However, Byron Mayor says that no specific data center project is currently confirmed for the proposed Boy Scout Road location.
