Data Centers

The city's code of ordinances defines data center, data center accessory, and data center campus, and establishes a Data Center Planned Unit Development (DCPUD) zoning district. The ordinance permits data centers and data center campuses in the DCPUD zone with a conditional use permit (§153.045.F). Developments in the DCPUD zone must adhere to the minimum data center floor area ratio and the minimum setback for all principal and accessory structures and meet requirements regarding height, building facade, sound mitigation, back-up power generator, lighting, screening, trash storage, landscaping, buffering, fencing, and parking (§153.045.F).
