Hearing on proposed Newton Twp. data center continued

A hearing on a proposed data center in Newton Township, Pennsylvania, by Popca LLC was continued, delaying residents' testimony. The developer is appealing a zoning officer's denial of plans for two data center buildings on a 76-acre property, arguing that the denial improperly excludes a legitimate land use. This follows another data center proposal in the area by Scranton Materials LLC, which is also facing an appeal and lawsuit after its curative amendment was dismissed.
