Summary
The council is moving toward banning or heavily restricting hyperscale data centers, worried about water use, electrical grid strain, heat, and noise. Residents invoked the Stringfellow environmental legacy and pushed for a full ban rather than just a study. Staff will return with draft ordinance language and more facts.

Impact analysis
No direct cost yet, but data centers could strain water and electrical rates and city infrastructure if allowed.
Residents concerned about water, power, air quality, and industrial growth would gain protection if a ban passes.
Data center developers and companies seeking to build in the city would be barred or restricted.
