Local officials outside Detroit, Michigan, have denied a data center developer’s request to lift a moratorium on new developments.
Wixom City Council last week rejected an application to end the city's data center moratorium in a unanimous vote.

Wixom Industrial One and Sansone Group are hoping to develop a three-building facility on a 55-acre site at 30625 S. Wixom Road. Each building would be more than 200,000 square feet (18,580 sqm), for a total of more than 519,000 sq ft (48,216 sqm).
A northwestern suburb of Detroit, Wixom is a city in Oakland County. It has had a data center moratorium in place since March 2026. The six-month moratorium remains in effect until August.
