Ordinance 2026-01 amends Moore Township's zoning ordinance to define and regulate data centers as a conditional use in the Industrial zoning district. The ordinance adds definitions for "Data Center" (buildings housing computers and telecommunications equipment for processing, transferring, and storing digital information, including cryptocurrency mining and server farms) and "Data Center Accessory Use" (ancillary structures such as generators, substations, cooling facilities, water treatment systems, and security features located on the same tract or adjacent parcels). Data centers and their accessory uses are permitted by conditional use approval in the Industrial (I) zoning district. The ordinance amends Section 200-8 (Definitions) and Section 200-20D.(6) of the existing zoning ordinance and references additional standards in Section 200-22 for specific uses.
