Summary
The bill lets counties adopt ordinances that specify standards such as size, height, design, and the number of data center facilities they can have, especially in unincorporated areas outside city zoning. It also gives municipalities the authority to regulate data centers within their limits and in a 1.5‑mile buffer around them. Existing local rules that were in place before the bill takes effect can continue to apply.
