The Platte County Planning & Zoning Commission approved the July 14 minutes, approved the Rocky Mountain telecommunications tower special-use permit with conditions, and voted to advance draft rules to require special-use permits for data centers and schedule a Sept. 16 public hearing.

Key outcomes from the Platte County Planning & Zoning Commission meeting:

- Minutes from July 14: Motion moved, seconded and approved by voice vote.

- Rocky Mountain telecommunications tower (special-use permit): Motion to approve the permit with planning-office conditions (FAA "no hazard" letter showing full height, final survey, setbacks, county right to place emergency communications equipment, and standard compliance with federal/state agencies) passed by voice vote; a commissioner who earlier declared a conflict abstained from voting on this item.

- Data-center regulations: The commission voted to advance draft language to add data centers to commercial and industrial classifications and to require a special-use permit; a public hearing and comment period was set for Sept. 16 at 1 p.m. at the Agriplex.
