Weld County Delays Data Center Zoning Rules Final Reading to April 6
DATA AND AI INFRASTRUCTURE
The Weld County Board of County Commissioners postponed the final reading of an ordinance defining 'data center' and zoning areas for development to April 6 at 9am. This delay allows for additional public input and review.
Residents have raised concerns about noise, water usage, and infrastructure demands. The ordinance would permit data centers in industrial and agricultural zones under specific review processes. A proposed data center by Global AI is under consideration, which aims to minimize agricultural land impact.
