The Morgan County Board is scheduled to consider a zoning text amendment at its Sept. 1, 2026 meeting in Madison, Ga., according to the published agenda. The item would replace the term “Data Processing Facility” with “Data Center” in the county’s permitted and conditional use table.
According to the agenda, the change is tied to a forthcoming data center ordinance, and the terminology update is intended to take effect when that ordinance is approved. The agenda also references a separate note change regarding the use of metal siding, though full details of that provision were not specified in the available record.
The matter is relevant to residents because it concerns how the county’s zoning code defines and regulates land uses associated with data centers, a category that may be subject to future development proposals under the pending ordinance referenced in the agenda.
