Overview

Avoid Early-Stage Traps That Create Long-Term Problems

Data center projects are increasingly surfacing in routine real estate, zoning, and economic development matters - often before specialized counsel is involved. Smaller firms are frequently asked to review early documents or advise landowners and local entities without realizing how quickly leverage and risk can shift. This program is a practical, issue-spotting CLE focused on how data center deals unfold at the local level. It examines early contract red flags, land control mechanisms, and zoning and utility pitfalls. Recognize data center issues early, avoid common traps, and protect clients before problems become irreversible - register today!

  • Spot red flags in NDAs, options, ROFRs, and other “preliminary” documents that quietly shift control.
  • Understand how data center purchase agreements and ground leases differ from standard commercial deals.
  • Identify zoning, land-use, and utilities challenges that commonly derail data center projects.
  • Advise landowners and municipalities on community impact, environmental challenges, and litigation exposure.

Abbreviated Agenda

  1. Contracts and Early Control: Spotting Red Flags
  2. Zoning and Land Use Where Data Centers Don't Fit Cleanly
  3. Community Impact, Nuisance Claims, and Litigation Exposure
