Spokane Pauses Data Center Boom | Spokane News

Published 2 weeks, 1 day ago
Description

Spokane County has paused new data center applications to craft smarter rules that balance tech growth with environmental protection and local resources. Developers of large-load centers—those needing 20 megawatts or more—must now prove they’ve got reliable power, water, and studies on noise and water feasibility. This pause, set to last until December (possibly longer), follows strong community input and fills a regulatory gap. The county’s goal? Ensure these massive projects don’t harm the environment or residents—especially when it comes to water and pollution. Stay tuned, stay involved.
