Commission recommends adding data-center standards to zoning code

Lebanon Planning Commission · July 28, 2026

Summary

Staff proposed and the commission recommended adding standards for data centers and related services to Title 14, Chapter 5; the code update would add specific requirements for development and operation of data centers in certain industrial districts.

The commission recommended adding Title 14 Chapter 5 Section 14 to create minimum requirements for data centers and computer/data-processing services. Staff said data centers were defined previously in the code but lacked standards; the new section would establish standards if such uses are proposed in the city.

Staff noted that data centers are currently a conditional use in the IL district and that adding standards will provide clarity for future applications. No public speakers opposed the change and the commission approved a positive recommendation to city council.
