These are towns where data centers have been proposed. Some are considering or have implemented restrictions or moratoriums, some not. We encourage people who live in these areas, and supporters from out of town, to get in touch, attend council and planning meetings, and help support local efforts, including legal campaigns (cities and counties listed alphabetically).
