Validity challenge involving data center in Conshohocken scheduled for November 16th in Plymouth Township
A substantive validity challenge to Plymouth Township's zoning code, involving a proposed data center at 900 Conshohocken Road in Conshohocken, is scheduled before the township's Zoning Hearing Board on November 16. The challenge was filed by 900 Conshohocken Road, LLC, which is associated with Brian O'Neill, and argues that the zoning ordinance excludes or makes development of the data center impossible.
The Plymouth Township Zoning Hearing Board is scheduled to hear a substantive validity challenge on Nov. 16 concerning the township's zoning ordinance and a proposed data center at 900 Conshohocken Road in Conshohocken. The challenge was brought by 900 Conshohocken Road, LLC, an entity associated with Brian O'Neill.
The validity challenge is separate from ongoing hearings on the project's application for a special exception. It argues that Plymouth Township's ordinance is de jure and de facto exclusionary and fails to accommodate a legitimate land use. A successful challenge could allow O'Neill to move forward with the data center, although the challenge and the special-exception proceeding are separate processes.
