Montgomery Township Now Faces a Fierce Data Center Battle at the Former J&J Site

E. Kahn Development has filed a lawsuit against Montgomery Township, New Jersey, challenging an ordinance that effectively bans data center construction within the township. The developer is seeking $300 million in damages, claiming the ban was based on public hysteria rather than sound land use planning. The ordinance, which also bans immigrant detention sites, was a preemptive strike by local officials responding to concerns over data center impacts like noise, water, and electricity strain.
