Portland City Council voted 11-0 (one absent) for Resolution 37753. It urges city leaders not to sign secret deals (NDAs) about data centers, asks staff to tell the council about any data center request using 20 megawatts or more, and says the council intends to pursue a pause or zoning limits on very large (hyperscale) data centers. It does not change zoning by itself.
