Plymouth Township data center plan draws neighbor concerns over noise, emissions

Residents are strongly opposing Hines' proposed 2 million-square-foot data center at 900 Conshohocken Road in Plymouth Township, citing noise, emissions, pollution, vibration and the proposed proximity of gas turbines to homes, children and playgrounds. The project is not a permitted use under the township code and requires a special exception; a zoning board hearing remains ongoing, with public comment to be held later.

The project is being reviewed under the city's Innovative Project Pathway Program, while San Jose simultaneously develops new uniform data center standards. This proposal highlights the city's efforts to balance downtown revitalization with the infrastructure and environmental demands of growing data center investment.
