What's on this agenda

Apex's Town Council and Planning Board will hold a joint work session where planning staff present research on data centers as a land use, covering types of facilities, energy and water consumption, noise, traffic, and economic and environmental impacts. Staff will also compare how other municipalities regulate data centers. This is a briefing, not tied to a specific site or application, and there is no public comment period.
