Broward County considers temporary data center ban

(The Center Square) –Broward County commissioners are considering a yearlong pause on large-scale data center development in unincorporated areas while the county evaluates regulations addressing infrastructure, environmental and land use concerns. Commissioners held the first of two required public hearings Tuesday on the proposed moratorium. No action was taken. The next public hearing is scheduled for Dec. 8. The proposal would pause acceptance and processing of development applications while the county determines whether its existing regulations adequately address the facilities’ demands on infrastructure and compatibility with surrounding land uses. The county describes large-scale data centers as facilities with an anticipated monthly peak electrical load of at least 50 megawatts. The moratorium would remain in effect for one year or until amendments to the county’s code of ordinances become effective, whichever occurs first. Broward resident Chris Nelson said during the hearing that his opposition to data centers goes beyond concerns about noise pollution and environmental impacts. “It’s really what do these things represent?” Nelson said. “We don’t want AI coming in and supplanting the human experience and taking our jobs away.” He said the argument that data centers would be local job creators does not hold water. “These things don’t bring

High school football composite rankings: Who's No. 1 in Week 13?

The 2026 high school football postseason has arrived for the majority of the states. Following a week of little to no movement in the USA TODAY Sports Super 25 rankings , the stakes are higher for some of the nation’s top teams, which are facing win-or-go-home matchups. Entering the playoffs, Santa Margarita (Rancho Santa Margarita, CA) remains the No. 1 team in the nation in USA TODAY Sports Super 25. However, St. Thomas Aquinas (Fort Lauderdale, FL) remains No. 1 in the USA TODAY Sports high school football composite rankings. USA TODAY Sports has developed its composite rankings using five different national polls (USA TODAY, MaxPreps, SC Next, HSFB America and Massey). Each is weighted differently to add credibility to the rankings. Here's a look at the USA TODAY Sports high school football composite: Week 12 USA TODAY Sports Composite Rankings .oembed-frame { width: 100%; height: 100%; margin: 0; border: 0; } (function(){function e(){window.addEventListener(`message`,function(e){if(e.data[`datawrapper-height`]!==void 0){var t=document.querySelectorAll(`iframe`);for(var n in e.data[`datawrapper-height`])for(var r=0,i;i=t[r];r++)if(i.contentWindow===e.source){var a=e.data[`datawrapper-height`][n]+`px`;i.style.height=a}}})}e()})(); This article originally appeared on USA TODAY: High school football composite rankings: Who's No. 1 in Week 13?

Hurricanes claim SSAA South championship, punch ticket to state title game

A dominant ground game and a defense that delivered when it mattered most carried the Coral Shores High football team to the Sunshine State Athletic Association South bracket championship Thursday, Nov. 12, as the Hurricanes defeated North Broward Prep 25-21 in Coconut Creek to earn a spot in the state championship game. The Hurricanes piled up 475 yards of total offense, relying on a three-headed rushing attack to overcome a second-half deficit and hold off a late Eagles rally. Coral Shores established its intentions on the opening possession, marching 85 yards on 12 plays. The Royals gained 55 yards on the drive, and David Beltran added 30, including the final three yards for the touchdown. The Hurricanes extended their lead after Kevin Williams picked off a pass, setting up Beltran’s 28-yard touchdown run for a 14-0 advantage. North Broward Prep answered before halftime, recovering a fumble and converting it into a touchdown pass. Sean Connolly blocked the extra-point attempt, however, keeping the Hurricanes ahead 14-6 at the break. The Eagles struck three plays into the second half, but a mishandled snap on the point-after attempt kept Coral Shores in front, 14-12. North Broward eventually took its first lead late in

Lakeland linebacker Charles Calhoun aims to make statement in playoffs

LAKELAND — If defense indeeds wins titles, Lakeland senior linebacker Charles Calhoun couldn’t be happier with that responsibility. He certainly knows what it’s going to take on his part and his defensive teammates as the postseason run begins, especially beginning against Fort Lauderdale St. Thomas Aquinas on Friday. “We got to come out, dominate,” Calhoun said. “We got to hit them in their mouth first. You can't let them hit us in the mouth. This whole week we've been practicing hard, you know what I'm saying, working hard, getting it in, so we got to come out, hit them in the mouth first, play 48 minutes of tough football.” Lakeland renews its rivalry against St. Thomas Aquinas in the first round of the Open Division playoffs at 7 p.m. in Fort Lauderdale. Lakeland has the overall edge in postseason matchups, but the Raiders have won the last two meetings with shutout wins in the championship game. For Calhoun, it’s his first time facing the Raiders as he transferred from Auburndale to Lakeland for his senior season. With Lakeland graduating its top three linebackers from last season, there was a void to be filled at that position, and Calhoun stepped into
