Shawano County to hold public hearing on data center moratorium
Shawano County's planning, development and zoning committee will hold a public hearing to consider enacting a moratorium on data centers. This temporary halt would allow county officials to review and develop new regulations for data center uses in unincorporated areas. The public is invited to submit comments or speak at the June 3rd hearing.
The Shawano County Planning, Development and Zoning Committee has scheduled a public hearing for June 3 at 9 a.m. at the Shawano County Courthouse. The purpose of the hearing is to discuss a zoning proposal that would implement a moratorium on data center development in the county's unincorporated areas. This proposed temporary ban is intended to provide county officials with time to study, review, and establish comprehensive regulations for data center operations and land use within the county.
Neighbors and interested parties are encouraged to participate in the democratic process. They can submit written comments beforehand or attend the hearing in person to share their perspectives. Copies of the proposed moratorium and related zoning changes are available for public inspection at the Planning and Development office.
