The Town of Chesapeake Beach, Maryland, has scheduled a Town Council workshop for Aug. 11, 2026, at 6:00 p.m., according to the published agenda. The agenda lists an item to discuss a “Data Center Amendment on existing code” among several land-use and zoning topics set for review.
For residents, the workshop matters because it covers potential changes to town zoning code that could affect how data centers are regulated locally, alongside other land-use matters including home occupation exemptions and sign regulations. According to the published agenda, these are discussion items scheduled for the workshop session, not final votes.
The agenda places the Data Center Amendment discussion within a broader Aug. 11 workshop agenda that also includes Home Occupations Exemptions, Sign Regulation Discussion (Part 1), and a Land Use Table Discussion, all under the 6:00 p.m. session. A separate 6:30 p.m. item on the agenda addresses Accessory Dwelling Unit (ADU) Adoption Discussion, according to the same document.
The meeting is identified on the town’s published meeting calendar as an August workshop (“Aug WS”), part of a recurring schedule of workshop (WS) and Town Council (TC) sessions listed for July through October.
