Stop AI data centers in Conewago Township, York Co


Stop AI data centers in Conewago Township, York Co
The Issue
In recent months, the residents of Conewago Township have faced a troubling development: the local government appears to be proceeding with plans to rezone land for the construction of AI data centers. Unfortunately, this is being done without providing the transparency and consideration that the community rightfully deserves.
As residents, we are deeply concerned about the long-term implications of bringing such facilities into our township. The potential environmental impact of AI data centers cannot be underestimated. These centers are notorious for their extensive water consumption and high electricity requirements, which our existing infrastructure is not equipped to support. Moreover, without comprehensive waste management plans, the risk of environmental pollution and degradation is significant.
We, the people of Conewago Township, do not consent to having our land exploited for this purpose, particularly when it serves to line the pockets of a few rather than enhancing our community's welfare. We value our right to know what is happening in our township, and we demand clarity and answers regarding this decision.
Under the Right to Know Law, we insist on transparency and access to information from our local government. We urge our elected officials to halt the rezoning process until full and informed discussions can take place. Additionally, ordinances must be implemented to ensure that any future development is in the best interest of our community and environment.
We cannot stand by as our township's resources are depleted and our environment compromised. We must act now to protect our land, our water, and our community for current and future generations. Join us in demanding that our local government prioritizes the needs of the residents of Conewago Township over external commercial interests.
Sign this petition to stop AI data centers in Conewago Township and protect our community's future.
