Allentown City Council tables proposed bill to regulate data centers
Allentown City Council tabled Bill 20, a proposed ordinance to establish zoning regulations for data centers, after a four-hour public hearing. Residents expressed concerns that the proposed amendment did not go far enough in protecting the community and environment. The Council directed its solicitor to review the legal implications of a municipal curative amendment, which could potentially impose a 180-day moratorium on new data center applications.
