United States — Local governments in Augusta, Charlotte, Iron County (Utah), Parowan, and Massillon this week acted to pause, postpone, or reconsider data center development. On May 26, Iron County enacted a 180-day pause and Massillon discussed zoning changes; Charlotte held hearings on a proposed 150-day moratorium while Augusta delayed a committee discussion. Officials cited utility capacity, traffic, environmental justice, and community concerns as reasons for temporary moratoria or zoning reviews, and residents and activists urged clearer standards. City and county leaders said moratoria would provide time to draft requirements, certify utilities, and hold further public engagement before accepting new applications or approvals.
