Lysander extends data center moratorium until May

The Lysander Town Board extended the town’s moratorium on data center development until May 5 during a Nov. 5 meeting. The decision preserves the temporary halt on potential projects in the Onondaga County town.

Dozens of residents attended the meeting and spoke against data center development. Their concerns included electricity demand and costs, pollution and water usage; no one spoke in favor of lifting the moratorium.
