Chadds Ford Township supervisors have voted to advertise an amendment to the zoning ordinance that would establish regulations for data centers. “These types of facilities are becoming more common, and the ordinance is intended to proactively define how and where they may be developed, including standards related to land use, infrastructure and potential impacts,” Supervisors Vice Chair Kathleen Goodier said. Goodier said the Delaware County Planning Commission said the draft ordinance was a thorough treatment of data center requirements. There will need to be a public hearing before the amendment is adopted.
