Impact analysis
It could slow down some high-tech investments locally, but it might save taxpayers from footing the bill for strained power and water grids down the road.
Local residents and businesses win here, since this freeze helps protect your water supply and keeps the lights on without sudden spikes in utility stress.
Tech developers and landowners looking to cash in on the data center boom are definitely feeling stuck in neutral right now.
