Council introduces property maintenance update and delays data-center zoning action to June for public hearings
Summary
Council introduced an updated international property maintenance code ready for adoption and a data-center zoning ordinance that will follow a separate enactment timeline with planning commission review, a 45-day review period, mailed notices and a June public hearing.
At the April meeting, borough staff introduced two ordinances for council consideration: an update to the international property maintenance code and a proposed data-center zoning ordinance.
Staff said the property maintenance code amendment is prepared and ready for adoption. The data-center ordinance was presented as substantively different from routine ordinances because it is a zoning map change: staff explained that the zoning enactment process requires referral to the planning commission and county economic development, a roughly 45-day review, and a separate public hearing and notice cycle. For the data-center zoning change, staff expects to advertise a public hearing in June and to mail notice to property owners within 30 days of that hearing.
Staff noted they are working with Kathy on the enactment process and will circulate materials to the planning commission and economic development offices for their review. Council members did not take final action at this meeting on either ordinance; the data-center item will undergo the statutorily distinct zoning-review process before any council-level vote.
