Local officials in Berks look to limit data center development

Multiple municipalities in Berks County, Pennsylvania, including Caernarvon, Cumru, South Heidelberg, and Robeson Townships, are actively drafting and advancing ordinances to regulate data center development. These efforts are driven by community concerns over environmental impacts, noise pollution, and strain on local utility infrastructure. State-level legislation has also been proposed, including a potential three-year moratorium on data center development.
