Plymouth Township officially moves data center zoning hearings back to smaller township meeting room
Plymouth Township's zoning hearing board has voted to move upcoming hearings for a proposed data center to a smaller meeting room. This decision was made due to audience noise affecting testimony at previous hearings held in a larger venue. The next hearing is scheduled for September 17th.
The Plymouth Township Zoning Hearing Board has officially relocated future hearings regarding a proposed data center at 900 Conshohocken Road in Conshohocken, Pennsylvania. Following a vote on August 17th, subsequent proceedings will now take place in the township's meeting room, which accommodates approximately 200 people.
This decision marks a change from the two previous hearings, which were held in Colonial Middle School's 750-seat auditorium to accommodate a large expected turnout. According to a township announcement preceding the vote, audience noise at those larger venues was reportedly impacting the ability to create an accurate record of the hearing and preventing zoning board members from clearly hearing testimony, which is crucial for any potential appeals. The next hearing is scheduled for September 17th at 7:00 p.m.
