Edmond’s City Council planned to take up the issue at its 5:30 p.m. Monday meeting, including a presentation on draft development-code language that could treat data centers as a land use. The city also had other agenda items, including a visitor-attraction initiative and funding for Arcadia Lake.

Edmond adopted a six-month moratorium on data centers in June. City officials said the pause would allow time for research and consideration of water use and other questions. Public information officer Mariah Carter said the city had been reviewing how data centers should be addressed in its development regulations. Planning Director Ken Bryan was scheduled to present the current draft language to the council.

Piedmont’s council was scheduled to discuss a data center rezoning application at 6:30 p.m. Monday. In Enid, officials planned to hear from developers about Project Thunderbird at a 5 p.m. Tuesday meeting.

Jason Singer of Plainsmen Holdings, the company behind Project Thunderbird, said the project was founded by four people who grew up in the city where they hope to build it.

The meetings put local land-use decisions and resource concerns in focus as the three communities consider whether and how data centers could be built. The information available ahead of the meetings did not specify the amount of water the proposed facilities might use or the projects’ expected power demand.
