Data center fight heats up as Plymouth pushes back

The saga over the proposed data center at 900 Conshohocken Road just got another chapter. On July 21, developer Brian O'Neill, operating through the entity 900 Conshohocken Road, LLC, filed a substantive validity challenge with Plymouth Township, according to reporting from MoreThanTheCurve. That is the legal equivalent of arguing the township's zoning rules themselves are the problem, not the application.

Plymouth Township Council was not shy in its response. Per Patch, council members characterized the developer's posture as "demanding approval by tantrum" and said the application "blatantly disregards the health, welfare, and safety of the community." Strong words for a zoning fight, and a reminder that what happens on the other side of the Conshohocken Road line matters plenty over here too.

Meanwhile, MoreThanTheCurve reports it filed a right-to-know request after asking all five Plymouth Township council members whether Governor Shapiro or his office had contacted them about data centers. Sometimes the follow-up questions are the story.

Bitcoin scam warning and a bank fraud alert for Conshy

Two items on the local safety ledger this morning. First, Patch reports that scammers posing as law enforcement have been targeting Montgomery County residents in a Bitcoin scheme, with local victims losing anywhere from about $1,300 to more than $23,000. The playbook is familiar. Real officers do not demand cryptocurrency over the phone. Ever.

Second, the Eastern Berks Police Department is asking for help identifying a suspect accused of making two fraudulent withdrawals at a Conshohocken bank, according to MoreThanTheCurve. If you were nearby and saw something, that is the department to contact.
