The Town of Henrietta (New York) is holding a public hearing on proposed zoning restrictions that would limit where large-scale data centers can be sited. This represents early-stage local regulatory friction around data centre expansion in a region with growing AI and compute infrastructure demand.

◆ ◆ The Wire takeaway
If you're siting compute infrastructure in the Northeast, municipalities are now actively restricting where data centres can go—this hearing is a test case for what zoning friction looks like at scale. Call your local planning office before you commit to any site; the regulatory window in this region is closing fast.
