Daly City has no cryptocurrency-mining ordinance. A commercial mining warehouse is treated as light industrial in the M District, needing a Use Permit from the Planning Commission, and its noise falls under Chapter 9.22's nighttime audibility rule.
No chapter of the Daly City Municipal Code names cryptocurrency, bitcoin, blockchain, or mining, and the Chapter 17.04 zoning definitions carry no such use. A rack-filled warehouse draws power and throws off heat and noise, so the City classifies it as light industrial under Section 17.22.010, which requires a Use Permit granted after a Planning Commission hearing and City Council action under Chapter 17.44. Siting is confined to the M District in the Bayshore area. Home mining is ordinary residential use, bound by the Section 9.22.030 rule against noise heard beyond the property line between ten p.m. and six a.m.
Mining rigs run in a district that excludes light industrial, or run without the required Use Permit, violate Title 17, which the city attorney can enjoin under Chapter 17.50.
