Iron County data center rules to face public hearing as residents, tribal leaders seek delay

Iron County, Utah, is scheduled to consider revised rules governing large data centers at a public hearing. The proposed ordinance has drawn concerns from local residents and tribal leaders, who say they had less than two days to review the changes.

The groups are urging county officials to postpone action on the rules. The matter involves the Iron County Planning Commission and county officials in the Cedar City area, but the available report does not identify a specific data center company or project.
