Data center opponents see executive order as partial win

Governor Kathy Hochul signed an executive order enacting a statewide moratorium on hyperscale data centers, a partial victory for groups opposing TeraWulf's proposed Lake Hawkeye data center in Lansing, NY. Opponents are continuing their fight through a lawsuit challenging the project's zoning classification and by raising environmental concerns about electricity and water usage. The state is also developing a regulatory framework and pursuing legislation to repeal sales tax exemptions for data centers.

Lansing official who opposed data center faces legal action

A Lansing resident has filed a 135-page petition in state Supreme Court against town board member and deputy supervisor Joe Wetmore, alleging he misused his position to block a proposed 150-megawatt artificial intelligence data center and other projects. The petition claims Wetmore used private email channels for town business, failed to preserve records, and manipulated municipal processes to oppose the data center. The town board has voted to fund Wetmore's legal defense with taxpayer money, though an amendment requires him to reimburse the town if found guilty.
