At the June 2, 2026, Land Use Meeting, the Hernando County Board of County Commissioners voted unanimously, 5-0, to approve a moratorium on AI data centers.

This is great news for Hernando County residents. A moratorium essentially pauses permits for AI data centers for 365 days. Currently, there are no AI data center applications under review.

By supporting the moratorium, the Board is demonstrating its commitment to thoughtful planning and ensuring that the health, safety, and welfare of Hernando County residents, visitors, and businesses remain the County's highest priority.
