#SanfordME City Council extends #DatacenterMoratorium 180 days amid resident concerns
by WGME Staff
Tue, August 4, 2026SANFORD (WGME) -- "Sanford city councilors have voted to extend the city's moratorium on new #datacenters for another 180 days.
"The previous moratorium was approved in May and was set to expire.
"The extension comes as a developer proposes building a 1,000-acre data center along the #MousamRiver.
"City leaders and residents have raised concerns about potential impacts on #WaterQuality, #LandUse, #ElectricityDemand and other #Environmental issues.
" 'We have the chance to protect the #community, #wildlife and the legacy of the Mousam River, not diminish its value by allowing harmful projects of this scale to be built along the river,' said Eve Dumont-Wilson, who opposes the project."
