Allows Digital Infrastructure Facilities only in the Regional Use Overlay 2 district and not as-of-right elsewhere.

Requires conditional-use, land-development-plan, Township review, and a public hearing before a facility may be constructed or operated.

Requires additional approval for expansions or substantial modifications that increase building area, equipment, utility demand, noise, traffic, or environmental impacts.

Requires detailed application plans and studies addressing site design, construction traffic and oversized-equipment deliveries, utilities, stormwater, noise, environmental effects, emergency response, and surrounding-property impacts.

Requires a 500-foot setback from every property line, along with buffering, screening, landscaping, and controls on lighting and visual impacts.

Limits parking to one space per on-site employee.

Requires an electrical-utility impact study showing full-build-out demand, available capacity, required upgrades, and impacts on electrical utilities.

Requires a water-feasibility study identifying the water source and available supply, as well as wastewater-disposal approvals or a public-water user agreement.

Requires applicants to identify the proposed cooling method during conditional-use review and regulates water demand and cooling-system impacts.

Requires closed-loop cooling to the maximum extent feasible and prohibits once-through cooling unless closed-loop cooling is infeasible and the applicant demonstrates that withdrawals and discharges will not harm water resources.

Imposes operating limits and standards for noise, vibration, lighting, building height, equipment, emissions, and other operational impacts.

Requires backup-power equipment to minimize emissions under EPA Tier 4 standards, comply with location and screening requirements, and undergo annual testing.

Requires the proposed end user or users and the facility’s specific purpose or function to be identified in the conditional-use application.

Requires emergency-response and security plans, coordination with emergency-service providers, and access for responding personnel.

Allows the Township to require applicants or operators to pay or escrow application, review, inspection, monitoring, and professional-consultant costs.

Requires financial guarantees or other assurances for construction obligations, environmental mitigation, and facility removal or decommissioning.

Requires a decommissioning plan providing for removal of generators, tanks, batteries, electrical infrastructure, and related improvements no later than three years after removal activities begin.

Requires an electronic-waste plan covering the safe removal, recycling, or disposal of servers, hazardous materials, batteries, and related products.

Requires continuing compliance with approval conditions and authorizes Township inspections, monitoring, reporting, corrective action, enforcement, and penalties for violations.

Permits data centers, officially classified as “Digital Infrastructure Facilities,” as a conditional use in the township’s Regional Use Overlay 2 district, creating a zoning approval path for the facilities.

Also allows Hyper Digital Infrastructure Facilities—those with full-build-out electrical demand of 50 megawatts or more—as conditional uses in the Regional Use Overlay 2 district.

Allows data center campuses to include associated electrical, cooling, emergency-generation, communications, access, and utility infrastructure when developed as part of the approved data center use and subject to the ordinance’s site and operational requirements.

Requires only one parking space per on-site employee, rather than typical industrial parking ratios, reducing the parking and impervious-surface area a data-center project must construct.

Defines Digital Infrastructure Facilities, accessory uses, Hyper Digital Infrastructure Facilities, and Sensitive Receptors, providing specific categories for reviewing data-center proposals.

Protects lawfully established data center uses and associated improvements as existing uses, subject to applicable expansion, alteration, and safety standards, so later zoning changes do not automatically eliminate them.
