Summary

County staff said the Planning Commission is reviewing a rezoning request for an aquaculture operation and proposed updates to the Zoning Ordinance (including language on data centers); the Board of Supervisors will hold public hearings in January on a rezoning and the Comprehensive Plan update.

Vivian Seay, a county staff member, told the EDA on Dec. 12 that the Board of Supervisors will hold public hearings in January on a rezoning and on the county's Comprehensive Plan update. Seay also reported that the Planning Commission is considering a rezoning request for an aquaculture operation and reviewing Zoning Ordinance updates that would include added language related to data centers.

Why it matters: rezoning decisions and Comprehensive Plan changes shape where businesses and facilities can operate in the county, affecting land use, infrastructure needs and economic-development planning. The addition of language related to data centers indicates the county is preparing to address or clarify how such facilities would be treated under local rules.

What’s next: public hearings before the Board of Supervisors are scheduled for January; the Planning Commission will continue its review of the aquaculture rezoning and Zoning Ordinance amendments. The minutes do not record final votes or decisions on these items and do not specify dates beyond the Board's January meeting.
