El Monte Adopts Yearlong Data Center Ban, Joining Baldwin Park

El Monte is a city in Los Angeles County, California. The City of El Monte has adopted a yearlong ban on new data centers. Baldwin Park has adopted a similar yearlong ban, and Hawthorne has paused new and expanded data centers for 45 days under an urgency ordinance. This week, the Los Angeles County Board of Supervisors took up a motion by Supervisor Hilda Solis to permanently ban large-scale data centers in unincorporated areas of the county.
