Union County, Ohio, Data Center Projects Progress Quietly; Gubernatorial Candidate Proposes Statewide Moratorium

Data center projects in Union County, Ohio, including in Marysville and Jerome Township, are making quiet progress behind the scenes, following a pattern of stealth development observed in places like Gilroy, California. Meanwhile, Republican gubernatorial candidate Vivek Ramaswamy is proposing a statewide moratorium on new data center projects in Ohio, advocating for their placement on abandoned industrial sites rather than farmland and outlining new conditions for approval. Local government entities have already approved zoning and incentive packages for some of these projects.
