Jackson County is reviewing proposed amendments to its Comprehensive Plan and Land Development Code concerning large-scale data centers and large load customer facilities. This review, directed by the Board of County Commissioners, will examine various impacts including infrastructure capacity, environmental concerns, and public safety. County staff are tasked with preparing these amendments or a status report within 180 days of the ordinance's effective date. The scope of work involves detailed analysis of zoning, site requirements, utility capacity, and environmental factors. This early stage presents an opportunity for contractors, suppliers, and service providers to engage with the county and understand potential future development needs related to these facilities. Early involvement can help businesses prepare for upcoming bid processes and permit applications as the county refines its regulations.
