Zoning Bylaw Amendment — Data Centers

Board voted to send Town Meeting a bylaw effectively banning most data centers, allowing only small under-2-megawatt facilities by special permit, with strict noise, water and energy limits; some members favored a moratorium instead.
Why this matters: Protects town water, electricity and home values
