Trenton Must Place Data-Center-Ban Amendment on Special Election Ballot

The Supreme Court of Ohio has ruled that Trenton City Council must submit a proposed charter amendment, which would prohibit data center construction, to city voters on a special election ballot. The city council had improperly refused to certify the citizen-led petition, which had gathered sufficient signatures, by misinterpreting signature requirements. This decision allows Trenton residents to vote on the data center ban.
