Mayor Responds to 1200 Route 22 Lawsuit, Developer Seeks Nullification of Ordinance on Data Centers

The piece is about a local fight over a data center ordinance in Bridgewater and Raritan, where the mayor is responding to a lawsuit and the developer is trying to overturn the rule. It points to zoning and legal conflict around whether the project can proceed, but it does not say the filing adds any new commitments on power, water, tax, or land.

More than 100 N.J. towns have now banned data centers. See where the fight is spreading.

New Jersey towns are using local bans to block data center development, and the piece tracks how that opposition is spreading across the state. It is about siting and community pushback, with a clear local land-use and zoning angle; it does not say anything about a specific project’s power draw, water use, tax terms, or a permit decision for one named site.

Moratoriums & opposition · 7:45 AM

300-plus local data center bans have only delayed just three US projects — bans 'much more bark than bite,' only 2.3 gigawatts of data centers are held up, versus 38 gigawatts expected online in 2027

The piece says local bans and moratoriums have slowed only a small number of US data center projects, while most planned capacity still appears set to move ahead. It frames the issue as a siting and community opposition story, not a change in power, water, tax, or land commitments for any specific project.
