Kings Mountain Planning Board to Review Draft Data Center Standards Nov. 5

The Kings Mountain Planning and Zoning Board is scheduled to meet Nov. 5, 2026, to review a draft of data center standards, according to the published agenda posted by the City of Kings Mountain.

The agenda matters to residents because it addresses how data centers could be regulated in the city, alongside proposed zoning changes for workforce housing and a draft sound ordinance. According to the published agenda, board members are scheduled to consider an amendment to the City of Kings Mountain Zoning Ordinances that would allow Workforce Housing Units (WHU) in Commercial Zones, in addition to reviewing the data center standards draft and the sound ordinance draft.

According to the agenda, the data center standards item is listed as a draft for review, not a vote for adoption. The agenda also references staff comments and a motion to adjourn as part of the meeting structure.
