SPRINGDALE, Pa. — One Allegheny County community is one step closer to building a massive data center.
Springdale Borough councilmembers voted 5-2 on Tuesday to approve a conditional use permit for the project, which is planned to be built at the old Cheswick Generation Station site.
This comes just over a week after the zoning board unanimously approved other project conditions, things like the height of the building parking and security.
Dozens of Springdale residents have spoken out against the data center in the past several months, and even held a protest before the meeting.
Channel 11 reporter Frederick Price was at the meeting and is speaking with community members. Hear their reactions tonight on 11 at 11.
