Clermont City Council to Consider 6-Month Moratorium on New Data Centers Aug. 11

The Clermont City Council is scheduled to consider Ordinance No. 2026-032, which would establish a six-month moratorium on new data centers, at its meeting on Aug. 11, 2026, according to the published agenda.

The ordinance appears on the agenda as Item No. 14 under the heading “Data Centers Moratorium Consider an Ordinance to establish a 6month moratorium on data centers.” The agenda does not provide additional detail on the scope or rationale for the proposed pause.

The measure matters to residents because, if introduced, it would temporarily halt approvals of new data center projects within the city while officials examine the issue further. The same agenda also lists a separate item, Item No. 15, in which resident Charlene Forth made a citizen request, though the agenda excerpt does not specify the subject of that request.

According to the published agenda, the ordinance is listed as an “Intro” item, meaning the council is scheduled to consider introducing the measure at this meeting. The agenda does not indicate whether a final vote will occur on Aug. 11 or at a later date.

Residents who wish to engage with this item can attend the Aug. 11, 2026, City Council meeting in Clermont. Details on meeting time, location, and public comment procedures are available through the city’s official CivicClerk agenda portal.
