Guilford County commissioners delayed a decision on a proposed 180-day moratorium on data center approvals in unincorporated areas to November 5, 2026, citing the need to carefully evaluate impacts on utility capacity, environmental resources, and public health.

This Wire brief sits within Fusion42's coverage of Deep Tech: Telecom & Connectivity.
