📰 News we're reading

• Savannah, Georgia just froze new data-center development at 10 megawatts or more for 155 days after OpenAI proposed a 3.2-gigawatt project next door, roughly 320 times the moratorium's threshold (dmnews.com) — Bloomingdale is part of a growing Savannah-area push to temporarily pause large data centers while local governments write clearer zoning and infrastructure rules. Savannah, Garden City, Bloomingdale, and Chatham County have all enacted moratoriums in response to OpenAI's massive Project Camellia proposal nearby, aiming to understand power, water, and neighborhood impacts before approving more facilities.
