Pima County Planning and Zoning sets some recommendations, standards for future data centers
Pima County Planning and Zoning sets some recommendations, standards for future data centers.
In a two hour meeting Wednesday, the Pima County Planning and Zoning Commission voted to send several recommendations surrounding future data center development to the board of supervisors.
The vote was 8-1.
The recommendations include: Any construction must be setback at least a half mile from homes.
Any construction would only take place in the most intense industrial locations in the county.
Commissioner Robert Cook wanted to extend the county's data center moratorium.
He was the only one to vote no.
The board plans to take up the issue at a meeting in December.
