Talbot County commissioners sued by residents who claim no notice on data center ordinance

Talbot County residents and WCR LLC have filed a lawsuit against five Talbot County commissioners, claiming the county improperly amended its zoning ordinance to allow data centers without proper notice or public review. The plaintiffs are concerned about environmental impacts, noise, and property value diminution from potential hyperscale data centers. They seek to void the ordinance amendment and block future data center permits.
