  "textContent": "May 26, 2026 – Minneapolis has enacted a six-month moratorium on certain new data center developments after the City Council voted 8-5 Thursday.\n\nThe moratorium will halt approvals while officials study the facilities’ potential effects on energy consumption, water use, noise and neighborhood impacts.\n\nThe measure applies to proposed data centers larger than 350,000 square feet, while allowing smaller facilities to continue moving forward throughout the city’s downtown core.\n\n### This post is for subscribers only\n\nBecome a member to get access to all content\n\nSubscribe now",
