Andover Township officials are planning to introduce an ordinance to ban artificial intelligence data centers in the township following a public meeting that ended in an altercation between a resident and police. The incident sparked backlash from residents opposed to a proposed AI data center at a former airport in the town. However, the township has decided to introduce two new ordinances, one banning data centers from Andover Township and the other removing data centers as a permitted use within the area where the former airport is located.
