This bill proposes new regulations regarding the siting of enterprise data centers within Minnesota. It introduces a new section, [462.3655] DATA CENTERS, which defines key terms such as "enterprise data center," "enterprise information technology equipment," "industrial district," and "manufacturing facilities." The bill specifies that an enterprise data center is a facility exceeding 800,000 square feet that primarily focuses on the storage, management, or processing of digital data. It also outlines the types of equipment and infrastructure that fall under the definition of enterprise information technology equipment. The bill establishes limitations on where enterprise data centers can be developed. Specifically, it states that municipalities are prohibited from allowing the development of such centers in any zoning district, with the exception that they may be permitted as a conditional use in designated industrial districts. The new regulations will take effect on June 20, 2025, and will apply to all enterprise data centers constructed on or after that date.
