Description
Description | Olyphant borough council declared its zoning invalid because it excludes data centers, giving the borough six months to adopt regulations for the rapidly expanding data center industry. The council rejected a proposed zoning amendment that would have regulated data centers as conditional uses across 1,000 acres east of the Casey Highway and instead opted to pursue a curative amendment to address data centers. This move allows the borough to regulate data centers appropriately with meaningful restrictions and avoid exclusionary zoning legal challenges. |
