Zoning committee reviews data center ordinance

The Zoning Code Technical Committee considered a substitute ordinance regulating the construction of data centers. Members clarified that permit applications proceed under the zoning rules in effect at time of submittal, and that a pre-approval noise analysis would be required for data centers between 20,000 and 60,000 square feet while facilities under 20,000 square feet remain subject to the City’s standard noise rules. The committee found the proposed ordinance legally enforceable and consistent with the zoning code format, and the motion carried without objection.

Committee finds substitute ordinances acceptable to expand zoning-notification radius and include all addresses

The Zoning Code Technical Committee met December 18, 2025. Members reviewed two substitute ordinances (Files 251071 and 241665) that increase public-notice requirements for zoning map amendment hearings from 200 to at least 250 feet and require notice to all mailing addresses (including streets and alleys) within that area. DCD Planning staff supported the change and noted 2026 funding will enable implementation and consolidation of mailing lists. Committee members moved that both ordinances meet criteria of legality, enforceability, administrative efficiency, and consistency with the zoning code; there were no objections. Discussion included interest in expanded outreach (including e-notification) and a forthcoming non‑substantive substitute to clarify by-law updates.
