Applicant seeks delay for Winchester Gateway data center

The public hearing for a conditional-use permit (CUP) application for the Winchester Gateway data center campus in Kernstown, Frederick County, has been delayed from its July 1 date. This delay comes after the Frederick County Planning Commission voiced questions and concerns during a work session regarding the project's energy infrastructure, building height, screening, and low-frequency noise. The applicant, Winchester Gateway LLC, requires more time to address these issues before proceeding to a public hearing.
