The Deer Park City Council is scheduled to hold a workshop on Nov. 3, 2026, that includes a discussion item on amending the city’s zoning ordinance to address data centers, according to the published agenda posted on the city’s Legistar system.
The agenda lists the item as “Discussion of issues related to amending the zoning ordinance to address data centers,” tracked under item numbers EXS 26-007 and DIS 26-053. The agenda specifies this item is for discussion only during the workshop. A supporting document titled “PROPOSED CHANGES for Zoning DRAFT.pdf” is attached to the agenda, according to the published record.
