Penn Forest schedules special meeting on data center zoning after developer inquiry
Summary
After a presentation about a proposed 754-acre site on Maury Road and Route 903, the board scheduled a special meeting for Sept. 8 to consider Zoning Ordinance amendments related to data centers.
A developer inquiry about a potential data center prompted the Penn Forest Township Board of Supervisors to schedule a special meeting to consider Zoning Ordinance amendments.
Tim Hendricks presented information to the board about a 754-acre property at Maury Road and Route 903 and asked whether the board would consider a data center on the site. The minutes record his presentation but do not include technical details, a site plan, or a formal application.
On the same agenda the board approved a motion by Chairman Roger Meckes (seconded by Supervisor Scott Lignore) to hold a special meeting on Sept. 8 at 6:00 p.m. specifically to discuss Zoning Ordinance amendments relating to data centers. The motion passed on roll call (four yes, one absence). The minutes do not record any further board direction or decision on the proposal at this meeting; the Sept. 8 session is where substantive zoning changes or preliminary staff recommendations would be expected to appear.
