Public meeting set for Wednesday on Madison’s data center moratorium

Madison city staff are scheduled to provide an update this Wednesday on their progress in developing new regulations for data centers. The public meeting comes several months after the City of Madison imposed a moratorium on data center proposals.

The moratorium, enacted in January, specifically paused zoning approvals for any new data centers exceeding 10,000 square feet. This initiative aims to establish clearer guidelines and controls over the development of such facilities within the city.
