San Antonio’s City Council dodged a full ban on new data centers but is now crafting tighter zoning rules to manage where they can go — sparking heated debate over jobs, power use, and community impact. While some fear losing out on construction gigs, others argue these facilities are low-labor long-term. The council is eyeing peer cities’ approaches, proposing 500-foot buffers from homes and schools and banning them downtown — though activists say it’s still too lenient. A Zoning Commission meeting is set for September 15th, with a final vote expected October 15th as the city seeks that elusive balance between growth and protection.
