From the meeting
At its September 1, 2026 meeting, the Planning Commission approved amendments and sent the data center overlay zoning changes to Lackawanna County Planning. The draft covers conditional use rules, GRID standards, diesel generator limits, closed-loop cooling, noise studies, annual certification, and decommissioning requirements. The item matters because it shapes where data centers can be built and what future applicants must prove before council hearing and possible adoption.
