The Little Rock Board of Directors is set to consider a data center moratorium at its Tuesday meeting. The proposal comes a little more than two months after an earlier moratorium measure failed in a deadlocked vote.

The pending vote could determine whether Little Rock temporarily pauses data center development amid ongoing local consideration of the industry’s growth and impacts.
