ACTION ALERT - Data Center Policy: We have seen the draft Ordinance that the Planning Department is bringing forward to the City Council on Tuesday, 8/18.  While it closes the By-Right allowance for data centers, it is also opens the Fentress Airfield Overlay to data center development by Conditional Use, locks in reduced setbacks of 100' from property lines and 1000' from residential structure, and reinstates the louder noise levels limits of 68 dBC nighttime/73 dBC daytime.  Please let the City Council know your thoughts on where data centers should be allowed.  - read more.
