Local votes and rules

📌 Other · Dallas

Five Dallas City Council members asked the city to start changing its development code for data centers. Today data centers count as 'communications exchange facilities' and are allowed without a public hearing in many non-residential and mixed-use areas. The change could create a separate 'data center' land use with its own rules. A council committee discussed it in early September 2026.

📜 Data center rules · Mesquite

Mesquite passed Ordinance 5259 with detailed rules for data centers. Each one needs a special permit (Conditional Use Permit) with public hearings, plus noise, power and water studies. Buildings must be 300 feet from homes and schools, and outdoor equipment like generators 500 feet. The ordinance also bans commercial crypto mining in all districts.

In Texas, cities decide inside city limits. Outside cities, the county has the say, but Texas counties have very few zoning powers.
