Borough council scheduled a Nov. 5 special meeting to vote on settling ERCOR's lawsuit and a $101M, 15-year community benefits agreement that would let the campus skip the conditional use hearings where residents could challenge it
Notes: Seven 80-foot-tall buildings and a substation on industrially zoned land off Marshwood Road and Route 247, inside the footprints of warehouses approved in 2022. ERCOR sued in June to get a zoning permit by right. The deal requires closed-loop cooling, enclosed generators and lower noise limits but allows Tier 2 rather than Tier 4 generators; the borough estimates 333 to 400 generators. A county commissioner called the payment 'the price of silence.' Sitework is already underway.
