Fulton County, Indiana is debating a moratorium on data centers even though no concrete projects are proposed yet.
The area plan commission will also look at a new zoning ordinance that would govern future data center developments.
This is a preemptive move to control location, density, and land use before hyperscale or AI-focused builds show up.
Any moratorium or zoning constraints could slow or redirect GPU and AI infrastructure investment to neighboring counties.
Local rules here will shape power planning, fiber routes, and site selection costs for future AI data center operators.
The meeting details in the article help infra planners track emerging county-level resistance and permitting risk.
