CogAbility Publicizes Claims of Exclusion in AI Growth Zone Decisions
The allegations say communities and environmental groups had less access than businesses. They may add pressure for data center moratoriums, including in North Carolina.

A claim publicized by CogAbility alleges that local communities and environmental groups had little access to decisions related to AI Growth Zones, while businesses had greater access to officials.
The claims may increase public pressure for regulatory measures such as data center moratoriums, including in North Carolina. Possible responses from Gov. Josh Stein, the North Carolina General Assembly, and the Raleigh and Charlotte city councils could influence market perceptions about a moratorium.
