13.B) Information and Discussion: Ordinance Amendment - Data Centers
This is a proposal to amend the Chapter 165 - Zoning Ordinance to add a definition (§165-101.02) for data centers and additional regulations for specific uses (§165-204). As proposed, data centers are defined as: “a premises in which the majority of the use is occupied by computers and/or telecommunications and related equipment for processing, storing, or transferring information. Infrastructure such as utility substations, power generators, and other supporting equipment may also be included.”
