Summary
Prince George's County Council Resolution CR-098-2025, adopted on 16 September 2025 and signed by the County Executive on 7 October 2025, paused the processing, review and approval of preliminary plans of subdivision that include qualified data centers for six months. The County Council's later Resolution CR-066-2026 states that this pause expired on 16 March 2026. A new two-year pause was adopted separately on 7 July 2026 (CR-066-2026).
What this does not establish
- The resolution text itself was not opened; its terms come from the official Legistar title and the recitals of the later adopted resolution CR-066-2026.
- The expiry day is taken from the CR-066-2026 recital, not from an expiration order.
Unresolved questions
None recorded.
Relationships
Supersession means a later instrument replaces the earlier legal effect. Repeal links identify the repeal instrument and the measure it ends. A later implementation or related letter is not treated as a replacement unless the record says so.
