Data Center Policy: Save the date - Planning Commission, Wednesday, July 8, 7 pm - regarding Data Centers in Chesapeake. 

On the Planning Commission agenda will be a proposed Data Center policy and ordinance to allow data centers by Conditional Use in Chesapeake. We're hoping to see a revised version of the documents before then, but in the June 6 version, some concerns raised included opening up the Fentress overlay to data center development, permitted noise levels, setback distances from residential properties, plans for decommissioning defunct data centers, and efficiency standards. Stay tuned here for more details and suggested actions.

Join us at our Green Drinks Chesapeake gathering on Wednesday, June 24,  to discuss and prepare for the Planning Commission meeting.  6 pm at El Toro Loco, 109 Gainsborough Sq.
