Residents of rural Drumore Township register concerns against data centers ahead of draft ordinance
Residents of Drumore Township expressed significant concerns about data center development during a recent Board of Supervisors meeting, prompting the township solicitor to draft an amendment to the zoning ordinance. The proposed draft ordinance, aimed at addressing these concerns, is expected to be presented at the August meeting. This indicates active local engagement regarding future data center projects.
Drumore Township residents voiced strong opposition to data center developments during the public comment portion of the July 7 Board of Supervisors meeting, making it the primary focus of the discussion. The township's solicitor is currently working on an amendment to the existing zoning ordinance to address these community concerns.
According to Mark Deimler, the township zoning officer, the draft amendment will not be made public until the upcoming August meeting. This development follows a period of growing public interest and concern over potential data center projects in the rural Lancaster County township.
