Planning Commission begins town-plan energy review; committee recommends adding data-center language
Summary
The commission reported the Energy Committee has started reviewing the town plan's energy section, including maps and 'substantial deference' discussion, and recommended adding language addressing data centers. The commission noted a need to update charts and confirm data sources with ACRPC.
Luke McCarthy reported he has been attending Energy Committee meetings and that the committee has begun reviewing the energy section of the Town Plan. Participants are reviewing maps and discussing the legal concept of "substantial deference," and the committee recommended including language about data centers in the plan.
The commission noted it needs to update charts, graphs and other tables; ACRPC (Addison County Regional Planning Commission) is expected to have most of the information but the Planning Commission must identify sources and clarify whether the document edits require different technology or file formats. The commission suggested inviting an expert on substantial deference to speak at a future meeting.
