Mid-Atlantic Planning Collaboration: What’s That Noise?

April 9 @ 12:00 pm - 1:00 pm

Mid-Atlantic Planning Collaboration FREE Webinar on Thursday, 4/9/26 at Noon, titled: What’s That Noise? 

Dave McGettigan with Prince William County will be presenting best practices and examples of how to revamp a noise ordinance to address the new noisemaker – data centers. In the past noise has generally been a police responsibility focused on parties that got too loud. Now data centers have moved in and some are putting up quite a ruckus. Noise ordinances and zoning regulations can help address the impacts of these new industrial uses, particularly in proximity to residential areas, schools, libraries, parks and other areas where a little peace and quiet goes a long way.   As data centers begin to pop up across the Commonwealth planners need to be prepared to address this growing issue.
