Williamstown Township, MI
Board Meeting Documents · (upcoming) · Ingham County
“The Large-Scale Solar Energy System Overlay District boundaries shall be as established on the Official Township Zoning Map.”
For data center, BESS, solar and wind developers
Hear about local moratoria before the vote, not after.
Siting Radar reads the agendas, packets, minutes and hearing notices of counties, townships, towns, cities and villages in Ohio, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Georgia, Indiana and Virginia. When a moratorium or siting-rule change starts moving near your sites, you get what is proposed, the meeting date and a link to the source document, with the exact quote and page wherever we may reproduce it.
No card needed for the trial. Information service only, not legal advice.

How it works
Registry
We start from the Census list of every general-purpose local government in each state, down to the smallest township and village.
Collect
We find each government's agenda page and check it daily for new agendas, packets, minutes and legal notices, including scanned PDFs.
Detect
We flag moratoria and siting-rule steps for data centers, battery storage, solar and wind, and keep the verbatim quote and page number.
Alert
Matches for your project sites, counties or states go out by email, Slack, CSV or API, with the source link so you can check it yourself.
Coming up
The next scheduled hearings and votes we have found. The full list is public and updated daily.

Questions
What exactly do you monitor?
Public agendas, agenda packets, minutes and legal hearing notices posted by county, township, town, city and village governments in Ohio, Michigan, New York, North Carolina, Georgia, Indiana and Virginia. We look for moratoria, zoning amendments and siting ordinances that affect data centers, battery energy storage (BESS), solar, wind and crypto mining, and for the procedural steps that come before a vote: discussion, drafting, planning commission review, first reading, hearing notices and scheduled votes. Coverage differs a lot by state, and in the states we added most recently it is still thin; the per-state table on our methodology page shows where we stand.
How early will I hear about a moratorium?
Only as early as the local government publishes something. Many moratoria appear on an agenda or in a hearing notice days or weeks before the vote; some are added the same night. We check sources daily and alert you when a new document matches your watchlist. Our methodology page reports how often we held a signal at least five days before enactment in a backtest.
Do you cover every local government?
No. The registry lists every general-purpose local government in the seven states we cover, but coverage is uneven: many small townships and villages post nothing online or post scanned documents late. The coverage numbers on this site are computed live from our database and show, state by state, how many governments we actually monitor today.
Is this legal advice?
No. Siting Radar is an information service. Every alert links to the source document so you can verify it; items from a government's own agendas, packets and minutes also quote the passage verbatim with its page number. Confirm anything that matters with the local government and your own counsel.
How do alerts reach me?
By email (instant, daily or weekly digest), in a Slack channel via an incoming webhook, as a CSV export, or through a read-only JSON API. You choose watch areas: project sites with a radius, whole counties, individual jurisdictions or whole states.
What does it cost?
About $500 per month per state, or $1,500 per month for all covered states, after a 14-day free trial that does not require a card. Cancel any time from the billing portal.
Where do the ground-truth moratorium records come from?
To measure ourselves, we compare against the Moratorium Nation inventory of enacted moratoria (CC-BY-4.0). Where we show those records, we attribute them.
