For now, New Castle Twp. ordinance has kept data center development at bay

New Castle Township, Pennsylvania, enacted a new zoning ordinance for data centers after KRNL Data Centers expressed interest in an 89-acre development. The ordinance imposes setbacks, height limits, noise restrictions, and mandates closed-loop water systems. While the new rules have made KRNL's initial plans non-viable and led to verbal threats of litigation, residents from neighboring townships are pushing for even stronger protections, particularly larger setbacks.
