Grant County APC asks staff to draft data-center ordinance outline into formal ordinance
Summary
The APC asked staff to convert a previously distributed data‑center ordinance outline into a formal draft ordinance for subcommittee review, directing members to email feedback and preparing to continue the ordinance-development process at future meetings.
Commissioners reviewed an outline of a proposed data-center ordinance and asked staff to convert the outline into a formal ordinance format. Staff had collected example ordinances from other Indiana counties to inform the draft and proposed that the APC form a subcommittee to work through technical details like setbacks, screening, landscaping and other site standards.
Commissioners agreed staff should draft the ordinance text and circulate it to the APC. The chair moved and the commission approved a request for Mr. Glancy to put the outline into ordinance form so the APC can work through specific numeric standards, landscaping, and design requirements. Commissioners were asked to email staff with comments prior to the subcommittee drafting session.
Next steps: Staff will prepare a draft ordinance format based on the outline and bring it to the APC subcommittee for detailed review before presenting a draft to the full commission for consideration.
