Vallejo defines "equipment within buildings" as indoor facilities holding communication equipment and computer servers, and permits that use by right in the IL and IG industrial districts. The city has adopted no separate data-center ordinance.
Vallejo's Title 16 Zoning Code names the use. Section 16.701 defines "Equipment within buildings" as indoor facilities containing primarily communication equipment and storage devices such as computer servers. Table 16.301-B lists Communications Equipment within Buildings as permitted by right in the IL Limited Industrial and IG General Industrial districts, and in the commercial and mixed-use districts, while residential, office, and medical districts require a Minor Use Permit. A facility classed instead as Utilities, Major needs a Major Use Permit, a discretionary approval carrying CEQA review and a public hearing. Solano County names no data-center use at all.
Operating a server facility in a district where the use is not allowed, or without a required Minor or Major Use Permit, is a Title 16 zoning violation enforced by city code enforcement.
