Counts describe this research collection. A label review is not a physical transition, an added record is not a new building, and a scheduled date does not establish that an event happened. Method and source rules.
Scheduled dates ahead.
Countywide Data Center Policy Working Group meeting. Scheduled November 2, 2026 at 12:30 -05:00.
The County lists a Countywide Data Center Policy Working Group meeting and invites public participation. Its agenda link leads to the Forward Pinellas document portal, where no agenda attachment was qualified. No specific vote, adopted policy or project permission is established.
Moratorium and restriction source reviews.
Moratorium record: proposed. Sources checked October 26, 2026.
County agenda proposes a pause on submission and acceptance of new applications for large scale data centers in unincorporated Martin County. The described definition uses a single location with anticipated monthly peak load of at least 50 megawatts, with colocated customers included and different locations not aggregated.
The agenda recommends adoption at the second hearing, not an accomplished vote. Already complete applications would continue under prior regulations according to the proposal. A prior procedural vote changes hearing timing only. The linked ordinance attachment returned HTTP 410, so full text, exceptions, term, adoption and legal effective day remain unverified. No project status is set.
Only matched, sourced records are shown. Missing documentation is not proof of no projects, concerns, hearings or local restrictions. Dates in the original sources can precede the Atlas check.
Updated . What changed: Dated page documentation. Individual source dates remain with the evidence.
