纽约州东费什基尔镇曾是IBM芯片制造业的中心，如今面临一场关于科技发展的激烈争议。1房地产开发商Treetop Companies计划在该镇建设一座规模约1000兆瓦的大型AI数据中心，占地超过100万平方英尺，1但该项目遭到当地居民的强烈反对。1
争议的核心在于该项目的能源消耗规模。这座数据中心的电力消耗将超过人口27.5万的布法罗市，1而东费什基尔镇的人口仅约3万人。1面对居民的担忧，镇政府于2026年6月一致通过一项三年禁令，禁止建设20兆瓦以上的数据中心，有效期至2029年7月。1Treetop公司随后提交了17页的反对信，称这项禁令针对其财产属于非法歧视，实际上构成了永久性禁止。1
该禁令引发了更广泛的政策反应。纽约州州长凯西·霍楚尔签署了行政令，实施全州范围内为期一年的超大规模数据中心禁令，使纽约成为美国首个采取此类措施的州。1这一决定招致科技业人士的批评，特朗普在Truth Social平台上称该禁令为"可怕的决定"，1并后来指责拒绝数据中心的城镇"落后且贫困"。1
East Fishkill, a New York town once synonymous with IBM's semiconductor manufacturing, faces a clash between technological advancement and community concerns as developer Treetop Companies seeks to build a sprawling artificial intelligence datacenter in the region.1 The proposed facility would generate approximately 1,000 megawatts of power across roughly 143 acres—a consumption that would exceed that of Buffalo, a city with a population nearly ten times the town's 30,000 residents.1
The project has galvanized fierce local opposition, prompting the town board to act decisively.1 In June 2026, East Fishkill's government voted unanimously to impose a three-year moratorium on datacenters larger than 20 megawatts, effectively blocking the development through July 2029.1 The decision prompted a broader state response: Governor Kathy Hochul subsequently signed an executive order establishing a statewide one-year moratorium on large-scale datacenters, making New York the first state to implement such a ban.1
The restrictions have drawn sharp criticism from tech industry figures and political leaders.1 Former President Donald Trump denounced the state moratorium as a "terrible decision" on his Truth Social platform and later characterized municipalities rejecting datacenters as "backward and poor."1 Treetop Companies itself submitted a 17-page opposition letter to town officials, arguing that the three-year moratorium illegally targets their property and effectively constitutes a permanent prohibition.1
