Draft Ridgefield Park ordinance would ban data centers; to be introduced May 26
Summary
The Board listed a draft ordinance to prohibit data centers in Ridgefield Park and scheduled its introduction for May 26, 2026; the caucus minutes include no stated reasons or supporting materials.
The caucus minutes record a draft ordinance described only as a "Prohibition of Data Centers" and note that "the ordinance will be introduced on May 26, 2026." The minutes do not include explanatory staff reports, impact analysis, or speakers advocating for or against the ban.
Because the transcript records only the proposed introduction without supporting detail, the Board has not yet taken substantive action on whether or how a ban would apply to specific zones, existing facilities, or pending applications. Next steps recorded are formal introduction at the May 26 meeting and any public hearing that follows.
