Hooksett's Planning Board is considering a one-year moratorium on data center developments to address water-supply concerns and to establish clearer regulations, potentially putting the issue on the March ballot.

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