September 25, 2026 – <\/p>\n
The Pinellas County Board of County Commissioners adopted a resolution Thursday reinforcing the County\u2019s existing ban on standalone, large-scale data centers in the unincorporated county. According to a prepared statement, “large-scale data centers are already prohibited under the County\u2019s land development code because they are not listed as a permitted use.” \u00a0This resolution “makes that policy explicit while citing recent Florida legislation recognizing that data centers and other large-load customers can create unique planning, infrastructure and land-use compatibility concerns.”<\/p>\n
