A new data center has been proposed in American Township, but some residents are voicing their concerns. On Monday night at the American Township Board of Trustees meeting, details were shared on a possible nearly 163-acre data center occupying land along Cole Street north of Bluelick Road. Proposed construction includes 3 data center units with a main office building, a security office, mounding areas, 2 water basins, and an AEP substation. After the proposal was shared, several American Township residents addressed the board of trustees with concerns about this potential data center.

A large crowd of American Township residents attending Monday night's board of trustees meeting voiced concerns about potential development north of Bluelick Road. To help residents who have questions, the Allen Economic Development Group provided a presentation on 3 potential development concepts with the 800-acre property.
