Man Removed From Data Center Hearing Faces Felony Charges
During a public hearing on a proposed data center, former state Rep. Todd Eachus was removed from the meeting and arrested after resisting police. The incident occurred amid heightened security due to a prior Facebook threat of violence. Despite this disruption, the three-hour hearing proceeded with residents voicing concerns about noise, water usage, and potential impacts on electricity rates and infrastructure. Amazon Web Services presented plans for the 2 million square-foot facility, stating it would create hundreds of jobs and comply with noise ordinances, though some residents questioned the thoroughness of the township’s review.
