Waterford Township officials are scheduled to hold a public hearing on Aug. 25, 2026, to consider a six-month extension of the township’s moratorium on new data centers, according to the published agenda.
The agenda item, listed as Text Amendment Case No. PRSA 26-01-03, describes the request as “a six month extension to the moratorium on Data Centers,” with impacted districts identified as all zoning districts in the township, according to the official record.
The matter is significant for residents because the moratorium, if extended, would continue to restrict the development of new data center facilities anywhere within Waterford Township’s zoning jurisdiction, not just in specific districts, according to the agenda.
The same agenda also lists a separate item concerning a property located at 2293 Elizabeth Lake Rd/36 Carpenter Ct, with April Little listed as applicant, according to the published document. The agenda does not specify further details connecting this item to the data center moratorium case.
