The Benbrook City Council is scheduled to consider a zoning ordinance amendment addressing data centers at its meeting on Oct. 15, 2026, according to the published agenda. The agenda item, listed as PZ-2026-10, would amend the City of Benbrook Zoning Ordinance to define and regulate data centers separately from other industrial uses.
According to the agenda, the proposed ordinance would require approval of a conditional use permit prior to development of a data center and would establish the City Council as the final authority on such permits. Supporting materials are listed in the agenda as PZ-2026-09 attachments.
For Benbrook residents, the agenda item matters because it would create a distinct regulatory category for data centers within city zoning code, separate from existing industrial-use classifications, and would subject future data center projects to a conditional use permit process overseen by the City Council.
