State representative urges Coggon to consider Data Center ordinance and power limits
Summary
State Rep. Cindy Golding urged the Coggon council to adopt a Data Center Ordinance and consider kilowatt restrictions for new projects; she also discussed recent changes to a property tax bill affecting municipal revenue limits.
State Rep. Cindy Golding spoke to the council on Aug. 12 about local planning considerations and a recent state property tax bill.
Golding "emphasized the need for a Data Center Ordinance and put restrictions on kilowatts prior to one being started," according to the meeting minutes. She also said that while she voted for a recent property tax bill signed into law, she was able to secure compromises that resulted in limits on the amount of revenue a city can collect regardless of inflation factors.
Golding’s remarks were advisory; the minutes do not show the council taking immediate action on drafting or adopting a Data Center Ordinance. The council may opt to refer the suggestion to staff for research and ordinance development in a future meeting.
