The Common Council considered a resolution to adopt a two-year moratorium on cryptocurrency mining and data processing system centers and moved to refer the proposal to the community development committee for further study.
The item was described briefly by the clerk as a "resolution to adopt a 2 year moratorium on cryptocurrency mining and data processing system centers," and the sponsor moved to send it to community development so members could vet land-use, environmental and infrastructure impacts before any final action.
No detailed technical findings or committee analysis were offered on the floor; councilmembers scheduled committee review to examine potential zoning or infrastructure consequences.
