Residents seek tougher data center rules

Monroe Township residents expressed concerns about loopholes in the current data center ban ordinance and urged the Township Council to enact an 18-month moratorium. Residents highlighted environmental impacts, energy use, and noise, citing examples like Data One's high water usage in Vineland. Mayor Greg Wolfe indicated state legislators are discussing data centers but are not currently pursuing a statewide moratorium.
