Pomona has no cryptocurrency-mining ordinance. A commercial mining operation is treated as an industrial data-processing use - sited in the M, M-1, or C-IND districts and bound by the City Code Sec. 18-311 property-line noise limits, with no energy cap or special permit.
Pomona's code names no crypto-mining, bitcoin, or blockchain use and sets no energy limit on mining. A warehouse of mining rigs draws power and produces heat and noise like any data center, so Pomona classifies it as an industrial or data-processing use permitted by right in the "M" Special Industrial, M-1 Light Industrial, or C-IND districts, inside a totally enclosed building. Continuous cooling noise must stay within Sec. 18-311: 70 dB(A) on industrial land and 50 dB(A) overnight where it reaches homes. Home mining is ordinary residential use, subject to the same property-line noise limits.
Pomona imposes no crypto-specific penalty. A commercial mining operation outside an industrial zone is a zoning violation, and noise over the Sec. 18-311 limits is enforced by the City as a nuisance.
