The Louisville Metro Planning Commission is scheduled to hold a public hearing on Sept. 3, 2026, to consider a text amendment to the Land Development Code addressing data centers, according to the meeting agenda published on the city’s Legistar system.
According to the published agenda, the applicant and jurisdiction for the proposed text amendment is listed as Louisville Metro, with the case affecting all Council Districts. The case manager identified in the agenda is Joseph Haberman, AICP, Planning & Design Manager.
The matter is relevant to residents because it involves a citywide change to land use rules governing data centers, rather than a site-specific rezoning request, according to the agenda listing. The agenda does not specify the substance of the proposed rule changes beyond identifying the project as a “Text Amendment to the Land Development Code” concerning “Data Centers.”
