Judge: Scranton woman has legal standing to oppose data center development

A Lackawanna County judge has ruled that a Scranton woman has legal standing to oppose a proposed data center campus in Ransom Twp. The developer, Scranton Materials, had its zoning change application dismissed by the township supervisors and has since filed an appeal and a second lawsuit. The woman's attorney argues the project would negatively impact stormwater, pollution, water and electric supply, wildlife, and property values.

Scranton Materials appeals Ransom Twp. denial of data center zoning change

Scranton Materials, a property owner, is appealing Ransom Township's denial of a zoning change that would have allowed data centers on its 251-acre property. The township supervisors voted to dismiss the proposed changes, citing lack of testimony and evidence from Scranton Materials. Scranton Materials argues the township is required to allow for data centers somewhere within its borders and that the township acted improperly in rejecting the zoning amendment.
