Summary

Eastvale has no data-center ordinance and no "data center" use in its zoning code. Its use matrix is closed - anything not listed is not permitted - so a data center first needs an official zoning interpretation from the community development director.

A land use shown with a "blank" in the table is not allowed in the applicable zones. Uses not shown in the table are not permitted. Please refer to section 120.01.050 (1), official zoning interpretation, when a specific use is not listed

Full Breakdown

Eastvale adopted its own zoning code in 2012 as Title 120. Section 120.03.030 sets Table 3.3-1, the use matrix for the C-1/C-P, C-P-S, C-O, I-P, M-SC, M-M, M-H, and W-1 zones. "Data center" appears nowhere in the code, and Section 120.03.030(b)(3) states that uses not shown in the table are not permitted, sending unlisted uses to Section 120.01.050(1) for an official zoning interpretation. The director picks the listed use that fits: warehousing and distribution (M-SC, M-M, M-H), public utility substations and storage yards (I-P, M-SC, M-M, M-H), professional offices, or research laboratories. Each is permitted by right, so most projects clear development review without a hearing. A conditional use permit and CEQA review attach only for a "C" use.

Violations & Fines

Operating a data center in a zone where the director's interpretation does not allow it is a Title 120 violation, enforced by the community development director under Section 120.01.080.
