Council gave final approval to zoning rules limiting data centers to accessory uses, capped at 50,000 square feet of floor area in industrial zones and 10,000 elsewhere. A resident pushed for even stricter limits like Munfordville's and raised concerns about water use and buffer distances from homes.
