Summary
Southport’s Planning Board just voted unanimously to request a 15-month pause on all new data center projects — not to stop anything already planned, but to buy time to craft solid zoning rules. The board delayed initial regulations, opting instead for a temporary freeze so they can develop comprehensive environmental and operational standards. Now, the Board of Aldermen must decide whether to approve this pause, giving planners the breathing room they need to get it right.
