The Union County Board of Commissioners is scheduled to consider a text amendment to the county’s development ordinance governing data centers and cryptomining operations at its meeting on Nov. 2, 2026, according to the published agenda on the county’s Legistar portal.
The proposed amendment, listed as Business Item 26-607 on the agenda, would revise multiple sections of the Union County Development Ordinance that regulate where and how data centers and cryptomining operations may be sited within the county, according to the agenda.
The matter is relevant to residents because it concerns the zoning framework that determines how data center and cryptomining facilities are classified and permitted under county law. Changes to the Table of Allowed Uses and related ordinance sections can affect which zoning districts permit these uses and under what conditions, according to the agenda description.
