BoardDodge County Work Session
The work session focused on the development of a data center ordinance for the county. Key discussion topics included establishing appropriate setbacks from property lines, mitigating noise pollution from generator operations, and adhering to water usage and discharge regulations monitored by environmental agencies. The board compared the draft ordinance against those in neighboring counties and deliberated on the legal implications of these restrictions regarding property rights, potential litigation, and the impact of municipal annexation.
