From the meeting
At its October 13, 2026 meeting, Upper Allen Township introduced a draft ordinance amending Chapter 245 to add definitions and conditional-use standards for data centers, data center accessory uses, and battery energy storage systems (BESS). The draft would allow those uses in the Industrial (IND) District and require site plans, studies, setbacks, buffering, lighting, water, wastewater, noise, emergency response, and decommissioning documentation before approval. The ordinance was drafted but not recorded as adopted in this document.

What is a pre-RFP?
A pre-RFP is an early indicator that a government agency is planning a purchase — a project discussed in a board meeting, a budget line item, a new hire, or a grant award — captured before a formal RFP or bid is published. Acting on pre-RFPs gives SLED and B2G vendors months of lead time to build relationships and shape requirements.

Pre-RFPs typically surface 6–18 months before a formal solicitation is published. Civic IQ tracks Town of Upper Allen's meeting records, agendas, and budgets continuously and updates this pre-RFP as the project moves through the buying cycle toward an RFP.
