Denton City Council has decided to explore regulating data centers in the area. The council is taking a two-part approach, considering both a temporary halt and long-term changes to development rules. The temporary moratorium and permanent code changes are being pursued simultaneously.

Public input will be gathered through separate hearings for each proposal. These public hearings are scheduled to start in September, allowing residents to provide feedback on the proposed regulations. For more information on the details of the proposals and the upcoming hearings, readers can refer to the Denton Record-Chronicle.
