Troy city officials unveiled stricter regulations for data centers, addressing concerns about high power usage, noise pollution, and proximity to neighborhoods. Proposed measures include larger setbacks from roads, noise limits, and electricity draw caps. The council also discussed mandating data centers stay farther from residential areas and highways, with limits on noise levels and power consumption. Switch, the company behind a recently approved data center, attended the meeting, noting it meets current rules but future projects would face new hurdles. Public hearings are upcoming, with input from Oakland County and state energy regulators, aiming for balanced growth without overwhelming infrastructure.
