The Cromwell Economic Development Commission is scheduled to meet on Oct. 21, 2026, to continue discussion of a proposed 12-month moratorium on new data center applications in the town, according to the official agenda.
The agenda item follows a public hearing held Sept. 24, 2026, at 7 p.m., during which commissioners discussed data centers and possible parcels available in Cromwell, according to the published agenda. A motion was made by Commissioner Paul Warenda and seconded, according to the agenda record, though the agenda does not state the outcome of that motion.
The matter is relevant to residents because it concerns whether the town will temporarily halt new applications for data center development, a land-use decision that could affect how commercial parcels in Cromwell are proposed for use during the moratorium period, according to the agenda.
