County Board chairman urges planning for potential large data center inquiries
Summary
Larry Youngs asked the zoning committee to begin preparing guidance and information the county would require if large data centers request information about Iron County, prompting a preliminary planning discussion.
During the March 17 meeting, County Board Chairman Larry Youngs told the committee that the county should "begin discussing and preparing in the event any large Data Center’s request information on Iron County and what we will require." Youngs’ comment initiated a preliminary conversation about what the county might ask of prospective large data center projects.
The minutes record Youngs’ prompt as a request for early planning rather than a formal direction; the committee did not adopt an immediate policy or checklist but noted the topic for future consideration.
