Local votes and rules

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.

⚡ Your electric company
Depending on where you live in Dallas City: Oncor Electric Delivery Company LLC (company) or Texas-new Mexico Power Co. (company) or Trinity Valley Electric Co-op Inc. (co-op (owned by its members)) or Farmers Electric Co-op, Inc. (co-op (owned by its members)) or Hilco Electric Cooperative, Inc. (co-op (owned by its members)).
In much of Texas you can pick who sells you power, but this company owns the power lines.
Big data centers need a lot of power. Who pays for new power lines depends on state rules. See the rules in Texas.
