Township ban on data centers gets county stamp of approval

HAMILTON, OH −A rural Ohio township's ban on data centers got a county stamp of approval Nov. 10. One Butler County Planning Commission member even said he expects the prohibition to become a "template" for other local governments in the region.

The resolution now heads back to the township, where the three elected township trustees will ultimately vote on it. Interviews with township trustees suggest it is likely to pass. Local governments wary of Amazon data center The amendment to the township's zoning code is the latest hurdle for a $5 billion Amazon data center planned for land just outside of Trenton, whose residents voted overwhelmingly to ban large data centers from the Butler County city on Nov. 3.
