From the meeting
At its November 12, 2026 meeting, ABZA reviewed a variance for Microsoft Corporation at 12501 Cleveland Road and adjacent parcels in Harris Township. The request allowed a 30-foot sound wall in the minimum front yard next to the Indiana Toll Road, tied to the approved data center use on the site. Staff said the wall was meant to address noise concerns from data center operations and recommended approval.
The packet showed this as a zoning variance for an approved site, with building permit conditions if granted.
