Cave City council advances data center moratorium

The Cave City Council in Kentucky has advanced a proposed moratorium on zoning amendments for data centers, voting 4-1 in its first reading. Council member Leticia Cline and many residents oppose data center development, citing concerns about community alignment, job impact, and unquantified resource usage like water and electricity. The moratorium aims to provide the city time to establish regulations and consider citizen input before any data center, such as one proposed by Discovery, can proceed.
