From the meeting
At its August 25, 2026 meeting, the Planning Commission discussed whether staff should draft a data center ordinance using the York County Data Center Model Ordinance. Members said the code should define data centers by measurable metrics, add stronger noise and vibration standards, and consider gray water cooling. The item ended without a motion, so the policy is still being shaped and the next step is drafting or further research.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.
