Weld County Data Center Land Use Code Update

planned

Weld County, Colorado, plans to update its land-use code to allow data centers in industrially zoned areas and agriculturally zoned parts with commissioner approval. The update aims to address future data center developments by requiring proof of adequate power and water supply before construction. This initiative is in response to increasing inquiries from companies interested in building data centers in the county, which could provide economic opportunities and property tax revenue.
