The Woodford County Board is scheduled to consider a data center moratorium as part of unfinished business at its meeting on Oct. 20, 2026, according to the published agenda.
The agenda, posted on the county’s CivicPlus site, lists the “Data Center Moratorium” as item 7a under Unfinished Business, immediately followed by a review of building permits as item 7b. The meeting is set to open with approval of minutes from the Aug. 18, 2026 session, followed by a review of any executive session matters and a public input period.
For Woodford County residents, the agenda item matters because it indicates the board has not yet finalized action on the moratorium, which remains carried over from a previous session. The same meeting also includes a building permits review under the same unfinished business category, placing both items for board discussion on the same date.
- Meeting date: Oct. 20, 2026
- Location: Woodford County, Illinois
- Agenda item 7a: Data Center Moratorium (Unfinished Business)
- Agenda item 7b: Building permits (Unfinished Business)
- New Business item 8a: Mackinaw River log jam
- Agenda also lists Planning and Zoning Issues (item 9) and a possible executive session (item 10)
According to the published agenda, the board is scheduled to review the data center moratorium and building permits during the unfinished business portion of the meeting, with no executive session planned unless deemed necessary. The agenda does not specify the content of any proposed moratorium language or a vote outcome.
Residents who wish to engage with the board on this item can attend the Oct. 20, 2026 meeting in person or submit comments during the public input period listed as item 6 on the agenda. The full agenda is available on the Woodford County CivicPlus website.
