Commissioners - 2nd Tuesday · 2026-06-09 · agenda_item

Jackson County Commissioners are considering a proposed ordinance that would place a one-year moratorium on establishing, constructing, expanding, or intensifying large-scale data centers or large load customer facilities in unincorporated areas. The exact economic impact on businesses is currently unknown and depends on future proposals. This item is currently under review by the Commissioners. If approved, the ordinance would affect future development projects. Businesses that might be impacted include those involved in large-scale construction, data center development, and related utility services. Early engagement with county planning staff could provide clarity on the ordinance's specifics and potential implications for future projects.
