From the meeting
At its August 30, 2026 meeting, the borough council adopted zoning text to define and regulate data centers and data center accessory uses. The ordinance makes data centers a special exception use in the Industrial zone and adds setback, noise, water, power, emergency planning, lighting, and decommissioning requirements. This is not a purchase, but it is a direct trigger for future site searches, land development, engineering, environmental, and compliance work around data center proposals.
