Data-center developer Raeden has filed suit against Gibraltar, Michigan, alleging that the city's moratorium unlawfully halted review of its proposed 100MW facility at a former steel-plant site. The company says it submitted an application in mid-February before the city council approved the moratorium on March 9. The resolution bars the establishment, permitting, consideration, approval, construction and installation of data centers in the city, according to the source.
