⏸️ Pause on new data centers · Lake County
County board voted to freeze data center applications in unincorporated Lake County while staff write rules, and set up a pause of up to eight months. The zoning board then held a hearing in August. Reports say the pause ends May 11, 2027, or sooner if rules pass. It does not cover towns like Grayslake.
