The San Angelo City Council has approved a rezoning measure that clears the way for a large data center project on city-owned land northeast of town. By a 6-1 vote, lawmakers changed the designation from rural to light industrial after extended public discussion, with concerns raised over water use, noise and infrastructure impacts. Supporters argued the shift could bring economic growth and new tax revenue, while opponents pushed for more conditions or delay. Next steps include negotiations over development terms and detailed plans before construction can move forward.
