County staff to refer data-center zoning changes to Planning and Zoning; committee to consult county attorney on game-machine limits
Summary
During the Manager’s Report at the April 15 meeting, the Ordinance Committee agreed to send proposed zoning text amendments for data centers to the Planning and Zoning Commission for recommendation and to consult County Attorney McFall about possibly limiting the number of game machines in convenience stores.
Under the Manager’s Report at the April 15 Ordinance Committee meeting, the minutes state that the committee reviewed proposed zoning text amendments that would outline guidelines for data centers and agreed to present those amendments to the Planning and Zoning Commission with a recommendation to go before the Board at its regular meeting on April 28, 2026.
The minutes also record committee discussion about possibly limiting the number of game machines in convenience stores. Committee members agreed to confer with County Attorney McFall to determine how to proceed, indicating staff and the attorney will advise on legal options and next steps.
The record does not include the text of the proposed zoning amendments, any recommended ordinance language for data centers, draft regulatory thresholds for game machines, or any motion or vote to adopt changes. The minutes do not identify who specifically presented the Manager’s Report; Assistant County Manager Connor Hooper was listed among those present in the meeting roster. The committee did not record formal action at this meeting on either item.
Next formal consideration of the proposed data-center zoning amendments is noted for the Board’s regular meeting on April 28, 2026, once the Planning and Zoning Commission has received the recommendations.
