The Ponce Inlet Town Council is scheduled to discuss data center regulations during its Nov. 19, 2026 meeting, according to the published agenda posted by the Town of Ponce Inlet.
Agenda item C lists a “Discussion – Data Centers,” in which Mr. Lear is set to review the infrastructure demands associated with data centers, the regulatory authority available to local governments under Senate Bill 484, and recent developments related to the issue, according to the agenda text.
The data center discussion appears on the same agenda as a separate item concerning a stormwater outfall flap gate improvement project, which the agenda indicates was approved by a 5-0 vote after a motion seconded by Councilmember White. The agenda does not indicate that the flap gate vote is connected to the data center discussion item.
For Ponce Inlet residents, the data center discussion item signals that town staff are examining what authority the local government has to regulate data center development under state law, as outlined in the agenda.
