Data center restrictions gain momentum across northwest Ohio
Successful citizen-led ballot initiatives limiting the size of data centers have led to a flurry of activity in other Toledo-area municipalities since the Nov. 3 election, including Whitehouse, Waterville, and Rossford. Volunteers turned over signed petitions for those three communities on Thursday, Friday, and Monday, respectively.
